STED: The Arctic Cathedral
KATEGORIER: Concert

Jeanne d’Arc (1412–1431) was the girl who at the age of 17 led the French army in the battle against the English in Orléans during the Hundred Years ’War. Despite her great courage and efforts, which for a time made the French army invincible, she was constantly distrusted, both by her own countrymen and the English – and most of all by the church. She was captured, abused and burned at the stake as heretics. The play is based on the court documents and Jeanne’s own words. It was not until 1920 that the Catholic Church repented and made Jeanne d’Arc a saint.

The performance lasts for 1 hour without a break.
