    A Night with Janis Joplin

    September 14 - October 7, 2018

    In Association with T&D Productions, LLC

    A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN

    Written and Directed by RANDY JOHNSON 
    Choreographed by PATRICIA WILCOX
    Music Direction by BRENT CRAYON

     

    Like a comet that burns far too brightly to last, Janis Joplin exploded onto the music scene in 1967 and, almost overnight, became the queen of rock & roll. The unmistakable voice, filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort, made her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Fueled by such unforgettable songs as “Me and Bobby McGee,” “Piece of My Heart,” “Mercedes Benz,” “Cry Baby” and “Summertime,” a remarkable cast headed by the show’s original Broadway star, Mary Bridget Davies, A Night with Janis Joplin is a musical journey celebrating Janis and her biggest musical influences—icons like Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith, who inspired one of rock & roll’s greatest legends.
