Narrated by the musician Cat Power, this in-depth examination of the revered Janis Joplin is an intimate and insightful portrait of a complicated, driven, and often beleaguered artist and her rise and sudden demise. Joplin's own words tell much of the film's story through a series of letters she wrote to her parents over the years, many of them made public here for the first time. A powerhouse when she sang, Joplin has never left the radio or the hearts of rock fans worldwide. 7 pm. $8.50. manshiptheatre.org.
