Summary:
The first child of the great astronomer Galileo entered a Tuscan convent in her teens. He’d taught her much about the heavens as a child, and during her years as a nun she remained scientifically curious while maintaining close contact with her father, even as the Catholic Church condemned him for promoting a sun-centered universe. Many of the letters she wrote to Galileo survive, and served as inspiration for Jessica Dickey’s play, which takes us on a freewheeling, time-shifting journey through Florence, Italy. The recording includes a conversation with author Jessica Dickey.
This play is part of L.A. Theatre Works’ Relativity Series of science-themed plays. Lead funding for the Relativity Series is provided by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, bridging science and the arts in the modern world.
Recorded at The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood, in July 2025.
