Saint Joan of the Stockyards

Saint Joan of the Stockyards

"Haunting voice and powerful lyrics...[Kelly McRae's] voice reminds of classic singers such as Patsy Cline"
-monstersandcritics.com

"Brilliant and thought-provoking...Lear deBessonet blows the doors off this one"
-Nytheatre.com (on Death Might Be Your Santa Claus)

One of Time Out's 25 People to Watch in 2006, director Lear deBessonet reinvents Brecht's savage masterpiece with tight choreography and seductive Country and Blues. Transplanted into a richly imagined and anachronistic 1920s Chicago, and with live original music by country/ blues singer Kelley Mcrae, intrepid St. Joan and her Slaughterhouse King weave a cautionary tale for the 21st Century. The survival of youth, hope and faith in a world of greed and corruption hang in the balance.
