  Cheap Date: LOVE LIZA

In honor of the March 27 screening of Cabaret at the Aero we bring you an all Liza Minnelli themed Cheap Date.

2:32 p.m.

We can’t think of a better way to start your Liza lovin’ date then to visit a nail salon like Gloss Nail Spa (2911 W. Sunset Blvd.) for your very own Sally Bowles-inspired green manicure. That way you’ll be sure to make the other patrons of the screening green with envy for not having thought of it themselves.

Cost: About $20 each including tip

3:13 p.m.

Allow yourself a little time for your shiny new talons to dry and head out for a photo op with Liza’s star on the Walk of Fame (7000 block of Hollywood Blvd.).

Cost: Free

4:56 p.m.

Singing the score of Liza with a “Z” walk down just a few short blocks to the Hollywood History Museum (1660 N. Highland Ave.) to take in the world’s most impressive collection of Hollywood glamour including a dress worn by Liza’s mother—as talented as she was troubled—Judy Garland in A Star is Born

Cost: $15 each

7:29 p.m.

Catch the Bob Fosse classic Cabaret at the Aero Theatre (1328 Montana Ave.). Watch as Liza gives the Oscar-winning performance of her life as a cheerfully depraved sprite who falls in love with a naive writer amidst the madness of 1930s Berlin.

Cost $8 each

10:47 p.m.

Complete your night at the Rainbow Bar & Grill (9015 Sunset Blvd.), formerly the Villa Nova restaurant, where Vincent Minnelli proposed to Judy Garland. While perhaps not a traditional romance, theirs was certainly Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Cost: Depends if you are drinking like vintage Liza or not
