Joan the Girl of Arc
By Darrah Cloud
Directed by Evan Anderson
Joan D'Arc, a shepherd in 1420s France, hears a voice while tending sheep one day, she can't believe what-and whom-she's hearing. But the voice is joined by others who claim they're saints urging her to go to war for France. Despite facing disbelief, she convinces the French army leader, rallies the troops, and leads them to victory in the Hundred Years' War, using the wits and methods of the real teenage girl that she was. But when she refuses to deny the voices she heard, she is sentenced to death.
