The acclaimed stage play One Night With Janis Joplin currently running at the Pasadena Playhouse is looking for its new crop of lead actresses.
One Night Productions is seeking out powerful rock ‘n’ roll Caucasian singer/actresses to play the role of "Janis Joplin” and strong African-American singer/actresses to play the role of the "Blues Singer” in upcoming productions of the play.
The play, written and direct by Randy Johnson, takes a musical journey exploring the legendary singer’s influence on rock and roll and features hit songs like "Piece of My Heart,” "Mercedes Benz,” "Me and Bobby McGee.” The musical also shines a spotlight on the many African-American female singers who influenced her career like Bessie Smith, Etta James and Aretha Franklin.
