Reviews & Ratings
report as inappropriateMary Bridget Davies completely embodies Janis Joplin. She puts everything she has into every song and you wonder how her vocal chords can take it--but that soul really makes the performance. Even though I was not alive in the '60s, I've always loved Janis Joplin's music and now feel like I have seen her in concert.
report as inappropriateMy husband and I both thoroughly enjoyed the show. Every musician did a phenominal job, not only held out interest but got the audience into the music - even standing and dancing at one point. Great show! There is not a bad seat in the theater.

About the Ticket Supplier: Arena Stage
Arena Stage today stands as a flagship American theater. Arena Stage was one of the first not-for-profit theaters in the United States, as well as a pioneer of the regional theater movement. It was the first regional theater to transfer a production to Broadway, the first invited by the U.S. State Department to tour behind the Iron Curtain, and the first to receive a Tony Award. Taking a leadership role in extending theater's horizons, Arena Stage has implemented groundbreaking policies and programs, promoting diversity in all aspects of theater, from theatergoing to production.
The Arena Stage legacy of world-class productions includes vast epics, charged dramas, rousing musicals, and probing profiles. From the monumental to the developmental, Arena Stage has helped build the canon of American theater. While they produce American classics, Arena Stage premieres new American plays and supported works in progress. They've nurtured artistic growth and engaged the community, broadening and intensifying the theatrical experience for one and all. And yet, in spite of it all, in their second half-century they see themselves as more fresh, restless and dynamic than ever.
