    Written by Bertolt Brecht
    Directed by Mark E. Lococo

    In this twentieth-century classic, downtrodden Renaissance scientist Galileo happens across a revolutionary device that presents a prime opportunity for notoriety and cash. Using it to substantiate a view of the universe that is contrary to the Vatican's traditional views, early 17th century Italy migrates towards his cosmic discovery and a stubborn Galileo is forced to choose between pursuing scientific truth and saving his own skin.

    This production will feature professional actor and artist-in-residence Ross Lehman as Galileo.
