Three-time Tony nominee Condola Rashad (A Doll's House, Part 2) will star in a new Broadway revival of Bernard Shaw's Saint Joan, directed by Daniel Sullivan.

The Manhattan Theatre Club production will begin performances April 3 ahead of an April 25 opening at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre.

Set in 15th century France, Saint Joan follows a country girl whose mysterious visions propel her into elite circles. When the nation’s rulers become threatened by her popularity and influence, they unite to bring her down and she finds herself on trial for her life. This timeless and powerful play dramatizes the limits of an individual in a society dominated by overwhelming political and religious forces.

Additional casting and creative team will be announced at a later date.
