One Night With Janis Joplin adds some actual Fourth of July fireworks to the musical ones produced on stage, with a post-show barbeque buffet on the Arena Stage terrace -- a prime viewing spot for the famed pyrotechnics launched on the National Mall. First up is the show, a part-concert, part-theatrical event that captures Janis Joplin's life and legacy in all its live intensity. Mary Bridget Davies stars as the rock legend in a performance that has audiences dancing in the aisles and critics raving. Featuring powerful musical numbers including "Piece of My Heart, "Summertime" and "Mercedes Benz," as well as one song Joplin never formally recorded, One Night boasts a full band and a cast including Sabrina Elayne Carten, who plays Bessie Smith, Etta James, Aretha Franklin and Nina Simone. After the performance, you'll move outside the theater for food and drinks, along with the fireworks viewing. Please see the full event description for the buffet menu. Learn More

About the Ticket Supplier: CRIER

The Douro Valley is currently one of the most interesting winegrowing regions in Europe, since the producers who previously only delivered grapes are now producing wine on their own and are gathering more experience with the vinification and cultivation. One essential advantage is that the producers work together cooperatively and have become aware of the necessity to market their excellent wines jointly in order to position the Douro region appropriately in the market. The fact that the original grape varieties continue to be grown in the Douro region and have not been replaced by international vines is an invaluable advantage. Together with the outstanding geological and climatic conditions this warrants the independent and unmistakable character of the Douro wines.
