It’s about a young woman who works as a low-level stenographer and lives with her mother. She follows the rituals that society expects of a woman, however resistant she may feel about them. Saint Joan is a play by George Bernard Shaw about 15th century French military figure Joan of Arc. The play dramatizes what is known of her life based on the substantial records of her trial.

The two productions feature a brand new cast of 4 actors, playing a total of 49 characters for two riveting, stripped down, stagings, both directed by Bedlam founder Eric Tucker. The productions run three weeks, March 7 through 25, 2018 at the Emerson Cutler Majestic Theatre, located at 219 Tremont Street in Downtown Boston. Tickets range from $20-80, and may be purchased online at www.ArtsEmerson.org, by phone at 617.824.8400, or in person at the box office. Student, senior and group discounts are available. Bedlam’s Hamlet. About Hamlet Prince Hamlet is depressed. Having been summoned home to Denmark to attend his father’s funeral, he is shocked to find his mother already remarried — to his father’s brother, Claudius. Worse still, Claudius has had himself crowned king despite the fact that Hamlet is heir to the throne. No wonder Hamlet suspects foul play. Bedlam brings their unique performance style to Shakespeare’s greatest play — arguably the greatest play in the English language — and four actors perform all 25 roles!

  • Shaw Festival's Saint Joan to Be Presented at Chicago Shakespeare
    Shaw Festival’s Saint Joan to be Presented at Chicago Shakespeare Theater Media Release #9 Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, April 23, 2007 … The Shaw Festival’s flagship Shaw production, the iconic Saint Joan, directed by Artistic Director Jackie Maxwell, will be presented at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater from January 8-20, 2008. The production began preview performances on Saturday at the Festival Theatre for its regular run as part of The Shaw’s 2007 Season. The production will be presented within the Chicago Shakespeare Theater’s 2007-2008 The World’s Stage Series for a limited two-week run at the Courtyard Theater. Chicago Shakespeare Theater is one of the fastest-growing producing and presenting theater institutions in the United States today. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Barbara Gaines and Executive Director Criss Henderson, CST has achieved a reputation for consistently high production values and artistic standards. Jackie Maxwell noted: “It has been my strong desire to get the extraordinary work we do here at The Shaw out on the road, making contacts with renowned theatre companies and their communities. The Chicago Shakespeare Theater is a world-class theatre company producing work of the highest quality and with a history of presenting American and international productions of distinction. The Shaw Festival is thrilled to join those ranks, and debut in Chicago, with Saint Joan.” In 1431 Jeanne d’Arc (Tara Rosling) – a young peasant girl who led an army and crowned a king – was burned at the stake as a heretic. Afterwards, in the smouldering ashes, one thing remained untouched – her heart.
