Saw "Saint Joan" by Bernard Shaw.
Great play.
Always had a soft spot for Joan of Arc.
One theme of the play - how society tolerates difference and dissidence is interesting.
In 1431 Joan was executed as a heretic.
Nowadays she would undoubtedly have had the pleasure of interacting with psychiatric services.
Something of an improvement on being burnt alive.
