A Night With Janis Joplin
Ordway Center for the Performing Arts
345 Washington St St. Paul
A Night With Janis Joplin is a blues-rock theatrical event that captures the legendary singer's life and legacy with all of the live intensity of an actual Joplin concert. Featuring powerful musical numbers including "Cry Baby," "Piece of My Heart," "Me and Bobby McGee," "Summertime" and "Mercedes Benz," as well as a song Joplin never formally recorded, the show brings Joplin's story to the stage along with some of her famous musical influences, including Bessie Smith, Etta James, Aretha Franklin and Nina Simone. This performance at St. Paul's Ordway Center for the Performing Arts is a soulful, no-holds-barred tribute to one of rock music's greatest performers.

A Night With Janis Joplin Reviews
Star Tribune - Highly Recommended
"...Nominated for a 2014 Tony for her performance as rock icon Janis Joplin in “A Night With Janis Joplin,” the actor/singer lost out to Jessie Mueller, who was admittedly beautiful as Carole King. But Davies deserved at least a piece of that trophy for a powerful performance that Twin Cities audiences now can see through Sunday at Ordway Center."
