Book A Night with Janis Joplin tickets in London

Direct from Broadway! Don’t miss the UK premiere of A Night with Janis Joplin at the Peacock Theatre in London’s West End.

Starring Mary Bridget Davies as Janice Joplin, this award-winning show is a musical journey paying homage to Janis Joplin and her musical influences.

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.

Fuelled by such unforgettable songs as “Me and Bobby McGee,” “Piece of My Heart”, “Mercedes Benz”, “Cry Baby” and “Summertime”, a remarkable cast and breakout performances.

Janis Joplin’s sister, Laura Joplin, says A Night With Janis Joplin is a “full belted memory that drives joy into my heart and tears from my eyes” with The New York Times saying the show “rocks the house with a fervour that is riveting”.

A Night With Janis Joplin runs from 20 August to 28 September 2024 at the Peacock Theatre London.

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 ‘n roll’s greatest legends.
