Description

Chicago's Trap Door Theatre presentation of “Galileo,” stays close to the heart of Bertolt Brecht’s script but is a revised challenging and thought-provoking interpretation. Fragments of the original dialogue featuring translation by Charles Laughton are there but the production has been reshaped and reimagined by director Max Truax into a postmodern avant-garde effort.

This theater review by Reno Lovison includes information about the play, the performance, where to eat nearby and some information about the neighborhood.
