Dorchester Drama presents “The Lark” by Jean Anouilh (translation by Christopher Fry) at the Roman Town House Thursday 7th to Saturday 9th July, 7:30pm. Doors open 6:30pm so bring a picnic. Tickets available at Words Etcetera, Cornhill Dorchester or phone 01305 257694. £8 in advance, £9 on the door and £5 for students

The Lark tells the stunning story of Joan of Arc. The Maid’s life are played out during the trial as her accusers struggle to turn her simplicity of purpose to heresy. The maid of Orleans has been captured and political expediency requires that she is dealt with swiftly. But it is the glories of her story rather than the tragedy of her death that is the triumphant climax of the play.
