Judy & Liza

Yesterday I went to an event sponsored by Rendezvous Travel, http://www.rendezvous.travel/, at the Westbury Music Fair.

"The Judy & Liza Show" starred Suzanne Goulet as Liza Minelli and Julie Sheppard as Judy Garland. They performed many unforgettable songs by these two show business legends. Their characterizations were mostly very good and sometimes quite moving. Judy is one of my favorite performers and so one has a high hill to climb to impersonate her and Julie Sheppard did an excellent job. Liza is also an amazing performer (in her day) and Suzanne certainly captured her essence.


The trip took more than 35 busloads of approximately 1800 people to the show and to either lunch at the Swan Club, http://www.swanclub.com/about.htm or the Crest Hollow Country Club http://www.cresthollow.com/ or dinner at the Swan Club. It was a hugely complicated process to orchestrate but this is what Rendezvous Travel specializes in.


My duties involved shuffling people on and off buses, seating them in the theater and directing them to their tables at lunch/dinner not to mention enjoying the show.
