'JUST JOPLIN'
(Booking essential)
Janis Joplin? Whatta gal! This show is a short, sharp burst of her extraordinary and unpretentious life.
It is both ridiculously fun & ridiculously challenging to play her. She was a beautiful mix of melancholy and total joy – filled with incredible joie de vivre.
I would think it’s a tad presumptuous for anyone to ‘stand in her shoes’ and ‘be her’ to put it mildly. She was one of a kind.
But the band and I hope to bring a little of her soul into this piece: a bit of interesting background, the people she mixed with, the characters that inspired her, and of course, her wild and woolly songs!
