The epic story of Galileo comes to life in the Wilma’s vibrant re-imagining of Brecht’s masterpiece!

Galileo is ultimately brought before the Holy Inquisition and forced to make a decision that fuels passionate debates over science, politics, religion, and ethics - even to this day. An ambitious production in every aspect, The Life of Galileo brings to the stage many of Philadelphia’s most esteemed actors in a sparkling new translation from Tony® and Olivier-winning playwright David Edgar (The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby). The Life of Galileo begins previews April 11th, opens on April 18th and closes on May 13th.
