In six scenes and with six actors, Shaw chronicles the heroism of French army leader Joan of Arc who, despite leading men to victory over the English, was sold to those she defeated to be burned at the stake in 1431 and was later convicted of heresy for professing to speak directly to God.  Inspired by England’s 1920 overturning of that verdict, and Joan’s subsequent canonization, Shaw creates his masterwork of spiritual, political, and human inquiry – capped by an exhilarating Epilogue that brings its history current to us.
