What other judgment can I judge by but my own?

In March, Riffraff will premiere a new production of George Bernard Shaw’s epic tragedy, Saint Joan. Set in 15th century France, Saint Joan follows the rise and fall of one of history’s greatest heroines, Joan of Arc. Inspired by mysterious visions, young Joan successfully leads an army against the English occupiers, only to find herself branded as a heretic by her nation’s concerned rulers. Defined as a “tragedy without villains,” Saint Joan deftly dramatizes the power of perspective when examining what is right and good and invites the audience to become a juror in Joan’s trial. To paraphrase Shaw, it's about what men do with good intentions and what they do in spite of their intentions.
