Publisher's Synopsis
Straight from London's National Theatre to L.A. Theatre Works! Unrelenting in his search for simple truth Galileo Galilei shatters beliefs held sacred for two thousand years. But, 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 in a passionate debate over science, politics, religion and ethics that resonates to this day. This American premier translated by David Hare and Directed by Martin Jarvis stars Stacy Keach and features an interview with Dr. EC Krupp Director of the Griffith Observatory.
