Previous Productions: Douglas College

Douglas Collage, a post secondary school in BC, produced Jehanne of the Witches in 2011. From interviews with the director, Thrasso Petras, the show seems to have been focused on Jehanne "in the process of becoming a woman, and one who is struggling with her faith at a time when the pagan world was on the wane and the Christian world on the ascent."

"The important thing is that it's about this man's obsession and his fantasy about who this woman was to him," Petras says. "He's telling this story through his need for her. It's as much about him, if not more, than about her."

Petras claims the show as a Black Comedy.
