Charlie Josephine News

Sheffield Theatres have announced two upcoming productions, Wildfire Road and Miss Saigon.

Joan of Arc has long been a symbol of female empowerment. Her ascent to patron saint of France is often described as a tale of gender non-conforming rebellion for women to aspire to. Shakespeare's Globe and writer Charlie Josephine (they/he) have dismantled this depiction of womanhood, redefining Joan's experiences through the lens of trans existence. In I, Joan, the protagonist traverses the same war and faith we as an audience are accustomed to, whilst also advocating for and navigating their nonbinary identity.

Here are some of September's most eye-catching openings. Don't forget to check back for BroadwayWorld's reviews, interviews and features.

Tickets from just £8 for I, Joan. A cry for courage erupts in the Globe Theatre this Summer with the premiere of Joan, a powerful new play uncovering the unlikely hero behind the legend.
