Galileo Galilei

Date: March 30, 2012 - 7:30pm
Galileo Galilei Newmark TheatreCan you imagine? What it must have felt like? To believe—to know!—that it was the earth that revolved around the sun and not the other way around! To stand against the prevailing thought of the entire world!
We meet the famous astronomer on his deathbed, blind from looking sunward so often, and are guided backwards through his life. Back as the Church strips him of his freedom, back as he kneels to recant his work, back as he is declared a heretic.

Candide Keller AuditoriumIn the Age of Enlightenment, people thought they lived in “the best of all possible worlds” because of the power of human reason. Armed with that belief, our naïve hero, Candide, ventures out into the big wide world expecting to find truth, beauty and wonder. He finds instead pestilence, plague, and pox (to name but a few)!Some 40 fast-paced scenes whisk our hero around the globe—and us along with him—in a galloping, humorous and touching trip.
