Transplanting the dark Joan of Arc story into a richly imagined and anachronistic 1920s Chicago, and with live original music by blues/country 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.

An uneven show to be sure. The two main leads were very good. Mcrae was sometimes brilliantly passionate, and sometimes seemed puzzled/curious as to how her part really fit. (Or was she slightly uncomfortable at times regarding the role she ended up with?) The show was best when either absurdist elements or poignant moments were played up. Chatted with a few people afterwards; their reaction seemed similar to my own. Beyond that... 122 is a great little theatre. Friendly staff. And near some fun/eclectic places to eat/drink.
