Join the excitement of A Night with Janis Joplin, the show hailed by critics across the country that has audiences leaping to their feet and dancing in the aisles to great hits like “Summertime,” “Piece of My Heart,” “Cry Baby,” and “Me and Bobby McGee.”
The unmistakable voice filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort made her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. A Night with Janis Joplin is a musical journey celebrating Janis and her biggest musical influences – trailblazers like Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith – who inspired one of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s greatest legends.
