is seen. Yet, Clara disagrees with that title. Joan of Arc was burned at the stake for leading the French army to victory over the English. Clara doesn’t want to be like her, almost like a martyr, dying for a cause. She wants times to change, where someone brave like her doesn’t die for their cause, but instead they make others see what they’ve been missing, that they see the injustice that Clara sees. This poem is the final theme in her character arc. First, she is a nothing more than a…

Poster 64 Page 2: Looking through the wide range of posters, “You Help My Boy Win the War” is interesting to look at because it uses the reader’s ability to interpret the image as its way to get the point across.

Minimally were there dancers, dancing with others to tell the story of Joan. Most notable was her death scene. Many times the dancers shuffled from their knees to move through the space of the stage. Also using large whole body movements in a curved pattern, the dancers used general space and the entire open space of the stage…
