Where did Liberace drive Bo Ayars to in order to interview him for what would become Bo’s 13 year position as Liberace’s Music Director? And how was Liberace at the wheel? All of this and more are answered in the video below. Missed Storytime PART 1? Scroll down to hear that episode about Bo conducting Liberace at the Riviera in Las Vegas! To read more about our Music Director, Bo Ayars, check out his bio on our PERFORMERS page.
BO AYARS, our music director, has a lot of great showbiz stories - and he should! He’s worked with Liberace, Elvis, Barbra Streisand, The Rockettes, and a gazillion others. We’ve started an interview series called “Storytime with Bo Ayars” and our Liberace & Liza newsletter recipients get first dibs at watching them. (HINT: You can easily sign up by clicking the button below.) We’ll eventually add these video interviews to the blog, such as the one below. Hope you enjoy and let us know what you think in the comment section below the video!
Classical Revolution PDX is going all out by putting a 9’ 6” Fazioli piano (they cost around $250,000!!) in Holocene, one of Portland’s most energetic nightclubs. It will be an evening of over-the-top virtuosic musical acts and will close with our very own Liberace, David Saffert, providing the evening’s final 20 minute set.

Every year that we have done our Christmas shows in Portland, OR, Ninkasi Brewing has provided financial support and gifts. These gifts are given out each show to some very surprised audience members! The gifts arrived this morning, and we were told that Ninkasi Brewing cofounder, Jamie Floyd, wrapped them himself. Don’t you just love their wrapping paper? Will you be gifted one of these this year at our shows? Come join the fun this December 28, 29, & 30 at Broadway Rose Theatre. CLICK HERE for ticket info. Thank you, Ninkasi Brewing!
David, Jillian, and Bo had their triumphant debut at Feinstein’s at the Nikko this past September in San Francisco. A sold out night, a wildly enthusiastic crowd, and a stellar REVIEW from the San Francisco Chronicle.
And we’ve been invited back!
That photo above? David was gifted an actual tux coat of Liberace’s made by costumer Frank Acuña. Frank’s grandson was in the audience that night and presented it to David after the show. Much love to Frank Acuña Jr. for this generous gift!
Our unending thanks to the Hotel Nikko, the entire staff at Feinstein’s, and to Jim Brickman.
Christmas is coming! Get your TICKETS to “Liberace & Liza Christmas! A Tribute” coming to Broadway Rose Theatre in Tigard, OR this December 28, 29, & 30!
