Love, Janis

Feb 6 - April 15, 2007

 
 

The life and music of rock-n-roll icon Janis Joplin explodes onto the stage in this new musical. Love, Janis goes behind the music and offers a glimpse at the soul of a legend both through the letters she wrote home and the songs she made famous. Classics like “Me and Bobby McGee,” “Piece of My Heart,” and “Mercedes Benz” come to life in this hauntingly intimate portrayal inspired by the best-selling book by Laura Joplin.

“A potent, fresh and enormously crowd-pleasing evocation of the
legacy of Janis Joplin” NEW YORK POST

“Phenomenal! Unbelievable! A rockin' good time!” WCBS-FM

Ordway Center is proud to present a unique schedule of performers for Love, Janis in the McKnight Theatre. Because Janis's vocal style was so intense, no one performer's vocal chords will be safe performing Love, Janis seven times a week. Therefore, we have two amazingly talented individuals in the role.
