Life of Galileo, The

Bertolt Brecht

Stacy Keach, Roy Dotrice, Joanne Whalley, Simon Templeman, Christopher Neame

American premiere of a new translation by the leading English playwright, David Hare (“Plenty”) – straight from London’s National Theatre. Unrelenting in his search for what he called “simple truth”, Galileo shattered beliefs held sacred for two thousand years. Under threat of torture by the Holy Inquisition, his scientific and personal integrity are put to the test as he argues for his very life. Directed by Martin Jarvis. Includes an interview with the Director of the Los Angeles Griffith Observatory, astronomer Dr. E.C. Krupp
