You are cordially invited to the canonisation of Joan of Arc. Saint Peter’s Basilica is filled to the brim with spirits as preparation for the sainting begins. Nearly five hundred years after the English burned her at the stake, the French hero is getting officially recognised. It has been a long time coming, and the ghosts at the back of the cathedral all want to have their say on the matter. Jealous kings and corrupt judges play devils advocate to Joan’s legacy, while the spirits of her friends and allies remember her courage, impact, and general bad-assery. Complete with original songs, Sainting Joan is a historic rock musical that blends camp and catholic imagery to tell the life story and legacy of the icon Joan of Arc.
