Join Larry Bergnach for an engaging presentation featuring songs and stories of this beloved, outrageously opulent, charismatic, and talented entertainer. Signup required.
For over 40 years, Liberace refined entertainment into an art and a way of life with his stunning virtuosity, outrageous opulence, and undeniable charisma. Musically, he is like no other performer. His technique ranges from "Mach the Knife" and "Beer Barrel Polka" to Chopin and Strauss. At the box office he is pure record-breaking magic. He is known as Mr. Showmanship, the king of diamonds, Mr. Smiles, and Mr. Box office. His clothes alone cost as much as some houses. He was one beloved entertainer.
Larry will play songs that make you laugh, then cry from the piano sounds of brilliance. As he says, "I don't mind the critics, I just laugh all the way to the bank". Liberace writes his life from his Midwest childhood to the bright lights of Broadway, London, Paris and Las Vegas.
Larry is approaching his 1000th program. He is known for his humor, enthusiasm, and energy in presenting his shows. In 2013, he won the senior idol award for comedy at the Drury Lane Theater in Oak Brook, IL.
