Josie Rourke (Les Liaisons Dangereuses, The Vote, Coriolanus) directs Gemma Arterton (Their Finest, Gemma Bovery, Made in Dagenham) as Joan of Arc in this electrifying production of Bernard Shaw’s classic play, that follows the life and trial of a young country girl who declares a bloody mission to drive the English from France. As one of the first Protestants and nationalists, Joan threatens the very fabric of the feudal society and the Catholic Church across Europe.
