Joan: daughter, farm girl, visionary, patriot, king-whisperer, soldier, leader, victor, icon, radical, witch, heretic, saint, martyr, woman. Saint Joan follows the life, choices and trial of a young country girl who declared a bloody mission to drive the English away from France. As one of the first Protestants and nationalists, she threatens the very fabric of the feudal hierarchical society, including the Catholic Church, all over Europe.
Josie Rourke (Les Liaisons Dangereuses, The Vote, Coriolanus) directs Gemma Arterton as Joan of Arc in this electrifying production of George Bernard Shaw’s classic play.
This production is generously supported in memory of M Lawson.
