Further casting has been announced for the UK premiere of A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN – THE MUSICAL.
Kalisha Amaris, Georgia Bradshaw, Choolwe Laina Muntanga and Danielle Steers will star as “The Joplinaires” in the Tony Award nominated hit A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN – THE MUSICAL.
The Joplinaires embody such trail blazers Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith, as well as Joplin’s backing vocalists, all of whom inspired her to become one of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s greatest legends.
They join the previously announced Tony Award nominee Mary Bridget Davies and Sharon Sexton in the title role of Janis Joplin. Mary will perform the role of Janis Joplin at all the evening performances, while Sharon will perform the role at all of the matinee performances.
A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN – THE MUSICAL is a musical journey celebrating Janis Joplin and her biggest musical influences. Like a comet that burns far too brightly to last, Joplin exploded onto the music scene in 1967 and, almost overnight, became the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Her unmistakable voice, filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort, made Joplin a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Audiences will enjoy Joplin’s favourites, including “Piece of My Heart”, “Cry Baby”, “Me and Bobby McGee” and many others.
A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN – THE MUSICAL has a book & direction by Randy Johnson, choreography by Patricia Wilcox, with associate director Allison Coyne, musical supervision & direction by Iestyn Griffiths and casting by Anne Vosser.
A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN – THE MUSICAL will play the Peacock Theatre, Sadlers Wells’ home in the West End, running from 21st August – 28th September 2024, with tickets on sale now.
