Jason Manford: A Manford All Seasons (14+)

*Please read the below carefully*

Big things are happening here at the Marina.

As you may have seen a redevelopment project has begun at the theatre which will incorporate, among other things, a change to the layout of some of the seating in the auditorium.  This is a big task, and we are currently awaiting an updated seating plan for the new layout. To be able to continue to put shows on sale for the Autumn/Winter 2025 Season, the way you purchase a seat for this event is different to what you’re used to. The booking page will ask you whether you would like Stalls or Circle seats and then will ask you how many seats you would like. Please then go through the booking process as normal. When we have received delivery of the new seating plan our Box Office Team will be in touch with you directly so that they can allocate you an actual seat.

For any questions please call 01502 533200 or email info@marinatheatre.co.uk

A Night With Janis Joplin The Musical (12A)

This multi award-winning show captured recently at the Sadler’s Wells Peacock Theatre is an extraordinary musical journey paying homage to Janis Joplin and her biggest musical influences. Like a comet that burns far
too brightly to last, Janis Joplin exploded onto the music scene in 1967 and, almost overnight, became the queen of rock & roll.

The unmistakable voice, filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort, made her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Fuelled by such unforgettable songs as “Me and Bobby McGee,” “Piece of My Heart”, “Mercedes Benz”, “Cry Baby” and “Summertime”, a remarkable cast and breakout performances.

A Night with Janis Joplin, written and directed by Randy Johnson, is a musical journey celebrating Janis and her biggest musical influences—icons like Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith, who inspired one of rock ‘n roll’s greatest legends.
