Liza Minnelli is heading to San Francisco, taking the stage at the Sydney Goldstein Theater on April 9, for an onstage conversation with longtime collaborator Michael Feinstein. The evening is tied to her new memoir, Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!, and is part of the City Arts & Lectures series. Public tickets go on sale Thursday, March 19, at 11 AM, priced at $64–$84, and every paid ticket includes a copy of the book.
According to City Arts & Lectures, the April 9 date is confirmed, and member tickets are already available. As reported by KQED, the public on-sale begins on Thursday at 11 AM, with tickets priced at $64–$84 and including a copy of Minnelli’s new memoir.
About the memoir
Kids, Wait Till You Hear This! is built from nearly two decades of recorded conversations and officially hit shelves last Tuesday. PR Newswire notes that the memoir credits Feinstein as a longtime collaborator, alongside co-writers Josh Getlin and Heidi Evans. Fans can expect the onstage talk to dip into that deep well of stories, with Feinstein in the unique position of having lived through much of the material with her.
How to get tickets
Members of City Arts & Lectures get first crack at seats. Memberships start at $120 and come with perks like pre-sale access and member discounts, according to the organization’s City Arts & Lectures membership page.
Feinstein and the local scene
Feinstein is not exactly a stranger to San Francisco nightlife. He is a familiar presence on the local cabaret circuit and serves as the artistic force behind Feinstein’s at the Nikko, the intimate supper-club tucked into Union Square. His official site lists the venue at 222 Mason Street and highlights its steady calendar of live programming, which has helped cement his ties to the city’s music scene.
Given Minnelli’s long career and the Goldstein’s relatively limited seating, demand for this one-night conversation is expected to be intense, and tickets could disappear quickly. KQED recommends keeping an eye on the City Arts & Lectures box office for the latest on ticket availability and accessibility information.
