What I liked

So great! Humor kept it moving along, even in the darker/more serious bits. Minimal props helped accentuate certain moments, and the slideshow kept things clear so I could enjoy her message.

What I didn't like

There aren’t enough shows for everyone to be able to see it!

My overall impression

I laughed, I cried, I learned things! This is such a phenomenal one-woman show exploring faith, passion, mental health, and what it means to be a woman in a world built for men. Jessica brilliantly weaves together real facts about Joan of Arc’s life – and death – with biting social commentary and pieces of her own life’s revelations. The 85 minute show flew by, left me contemplative, and is something I’m going to be thinking about for a long time.

There is one more show left! DO NOT MISS THIS!
