St. Joan of the Stockyards
By Bertolt Brecht

Presented in Thurber Theatre
Directed by Lesley Ferris

Cast | Production Staff | Production Crew | Program Copy

Written after the success of The Threepenny Opera in 1928, Bertolt Brecht's Saint Joan of the Stockyards transforms Jeanne d'Arc, peasant girl in 15th century France, into Joan Dark, member of a Salvation Army-like band in 20th century Chicago. Like her predecessor, Dark is a doomed woman, a martyr and an innocent in a world of business deals and strike breakers, fat cats who fix prices, make secret deals and squeeze the workers for every penny. Laced with humor and poignant songs, the play charts Joan's battle with Pierpont Mauler, the wheeling-dealing owner of a meat-packing plant, as her world spins out of control.
