Acclaimed German director, Peter Kleinert directs the Irondale ensemble in a production of Bert Brecht’s master-work Saint Joan of the Stockyards. A darkly comic tale of romance between a meatpacking tycoon and a Salvation Army worker set amidst the milieu of unemployed workers, high-rolling millionaires, and corporate greed.

“I want Irondale’s “Saint Joan” to come right out of Brooklyn”, says director Peter Kleinert. Originally set in 1920’s Chicago, Brecht’s drama focuses the driving issues of the pursuit of justice in a system driven by profit, and the individual in a fight for what is good and against society. Performed at Irondale for the first time since 1993, the ensemble presents this gripping drama laced with humor and songs.
