Based loosely upon the Homeric classic of the same name, this theatrical adaptation offers a contemporary spin on the trials and tribulations of warfare and the clashes that result from cultural differences.

This modern take on the ancient tale also visits the struggles of the conquered and the conqueror.

What is the relationship between science and religion and how can they serve the pursuit of knowledge and truth? Galileo's Daughters examines these questions through the lens of a father's loving relationship with his two daughters.

The play highlights both the passion and discipline of Galileo's search for scientific truth, but not without an equally unrelenting religious devoutness, all interwoven in a story that focuses largely on the experiences, emotions, ascetic life, and religious faith of his two daughters Sister Arcangela and Sister Celeste.

Galileo's Daughters takes the audience along on an intellectual and spiritual journey into the sensual, physical, and observable truth of Galileo's experiments as he performs several of these experiments on stage. The conflict between physical and spiritual truths is deepened by the precision of the actors' physical presence on stage throughout the play.
