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.

Saint Joan is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.
