Prague Fringe: The High Priestess – Johanna
After its acclaimed success in Italy, with special mentions and nominations at the Milano Off Fringe Festival, The High Priestess – Johanna makes its international debut in Prague.
A powerful anthem to female emancipation, an initiatory journey that weaves together history, legend, and spirituality. An epic and timeless tale, inspired by one of the most enigmatic cards of the Tarot’s Major Arcana: a symbol of deep knowledge, boldness, and power.
“The woman who wants to know is dangerous… The woman who knows is even more dangerous.”
In the heart of the Middle Ages, Johanna is a rebellious—and dangerously so—woman: she studies, travels, defies every law, and disguises herself as a man until she makes the impossible possible: becoming Pope.
A symbol of freedom and disobedience, she claims that the right to know has no gender and that faith knows no boundaries. From legend to card, from archetype to icon—an ancient voice rises: will you hear it?
