Condola Rashad stars as one of history's greatest heroines in a major new production of Bernard Shaw's epic work directed by Daniel Sullivan. Set in 15th century France, Saint Joan follows a country girl whose mysterious visions propel her into elite circles. When the nation's rulers become threatened by her popularity and influence, they unite to bring her down and she finds herself on trial for her life. This timeless and powerful play dramatizes the limits of an individual in a society dominated by overwhelming political and religious forces.
