“Joan” looks at the western warrior figure Joan of Arc through a queer lens. 

The dance performance revisits motifs from Friedrich Schiller's patriarchal and bourgeois literary classic “The Maid of Orleans” and reinterprets them. 

Disobedient, tender and seductive, “Joan” unfolds between embodied storytelling, performance and ritual within an alternative audience setting.  
The performers investigate how heroic and religious gestures can be reinterpreted and recontextualized. 

“Joan” addresses the question of who shapes cultural narratives of remembrance, the perspectives they express and those they exclude, and how stories can be opened up through plural perspectives.
