Janis Joplin: Full Tilt

Theatre Production

Director

Written by Peter Arnott

★★★★

“So brilliant and intense both musically and dramatically it lifts the hairs on the back of the neck”

- The Scotsman

From multi-award winning writing/directing team Peter Arnott and director Cora Bissett, Full Tilt was a sensation at the 2014 Fringe, winning ‘Best Play’ from the Scottish Arts Club and ‘Best Female Musical Performance’ for its star, Angie Darcy.

A celebration of a sound, a scream of protest at the universe.

Full Tilt.

On stage a woman stands, the greatest rock singer of her generation.

Standing around her is the hottest band that a record company can buy. In front of her, an audience of thousands of expectant fans. She is Janis Joplin. She is utterly alone.
