PLOT:
In one of the earliest examples of such, Liza Minnelli performs in a one-time only concert, May 31, 1972 at the Lyceum Theater in New York City, designed specifically to be filmed, in this case for broadcast television. The concert consists of established songs, such as the final set primarily from her recent triumph in "Cabaret" (1972) and a few new songs, most notably the one written specifically for her and which is used as the concert title, all about the mispronunciation of her name.
