SUMMARY:New Hampshire Theatre Project's Junior Youth Repertory Company presents Galileo's Pendulum: Freedom of Thought
DESCRIPTION:New Hampshire Theatre Project's Youth Repertory Company is proud to present Galileo's Pendulum: Freedom of Thought\, a provocative new work by Michael Megliola.\n\n \n\nGalileo Galilei (1564-1642) never did most of the things for which many people give him credit. He did not drop stones off the leaning tower of Pisa or invent the telescope.  By the time Galileo came along\, people had discovered\, forgotten\, then rediscovered that the Earth orbits the Sun. \n\n \n\nGalileo did something much more important\, courageous\, and dangerous than any of those things. He stood up for the freedom of thought. Galileo demanded that academic\, religious and political leaders accept scientific methods. He dared to challenge censorship at a time when people who spoke out were sometimes tortured or killed. Galileo was forced to recant his beliefs\, at least publicly\, but by then the truth was out. \n\n \n\nMembers of NHTP's Junior Repertory Company were inspired by Bertolt Brecht's famous play Life of Galileo and wanted to create a script with a scientific focus that was accessible to younger audiences.  Galileo's Pendulum: Freedom of Thought will be a provocative experience for students from age 7 to adult.
