Saint Joan
Saint Joan will reimagine George Bernard Shaw’s classic play for the 2020s, in a stripped-back, close-up staging, directed by Stewart Laing (formerly Untitled Projects), with a film sequence written and directed by Adura Onashile. Based on the extraordinary true story of a sixteen-year-old girl who led France to victory in the Hundred Years War,
Saint Joan explores power, gender and youth-led change, taking us on the journey of someone from a marginalised background impacting international politics. As today’s world faces political unrest and war,
Saint Joan speaks powerfully to a new generation challenging authority, reminding us of history’s unlikely revolutionaries.
“Doing this huge historical pageant of a play in small spaces with limited resources is really exciting in terms of looking at
Saint Joan with fresh eyes. In the 2020s we find our news feeds increasingly dominated by a world at war: what can we learn from this teenager’s battles with the powerful establishments of the military, the church, and the government?” – Stewart Laing, director
