Abstract
Liza Minnelli, lyricist Fred Ebb, and composer John Kander discuss their great admiration for one another's talents, and the development of an unusual and successful three-way collaboration. Among other topics they discuss their first stage collaboration, the 1965 musical Flora, the red menace, which marked Minnelli's Broadway debut, and the first production with songs by Kander and Ebb. They also discuss their impressions of that show's director, George Abbott.
