Pickpick

A great retelling of Joan of Arc's story that I absolutely loved until the epilogue. Witty and layered, even Joan has her flaws, and her persecutors are presented as more than caricatures.

And then there is the epilogue. No, Shaw, why?!! It turned a realistic and balanced historically based play into something that wanted to feel like a Shakespearean tragedy. The heavy-handed epilogue lessens the power of the play preceding it. #litsybingo
