SAINT JOAN
by George Bernard Shaw
Joan believes she was sent by god –
her foes believe she should be sent back.
Stripping away the myths that grew up around her, Shaw’s play examines the dramatic rise and equally rapid fall of Joan of Arc.
Joan believes she has been sent by god to drive the English from France. But she is up against the forces of prejudice, class, sexism, and the church.
Having god on her side may not be enough.
