GALILEO starring Raúl Esparza

Berkeley Rep will present the dazzling world premiere musical, GALILEO (May/June 2024), helmed by Tony Award winner Michael Mayer (American Idiot, Swept Away, Spring Awakening), written by two-time Emmy winner Danny Strong (Dopesick, Empire, The Butler), and choreographed by David Neumann (Swept Away, Hadestown).

When maverick scientist Galileo Galilei makes celestial observations that challenge humanity's understanding of its place in the universe, he's summoned to Rome to defend his discoveries before the most powerful religious institution in the world, which is facing a rebellion of its own. With an original rock score and lyrics by Michael Weiner (Broadway's First Date) and Zoe Sarnak, Galileois an explosive collision of science and faith, truth and power.

Galileo will likely join the constellation of world premieres that traveled from Berkeley Rep to Broadway. Galileo is presented by special arrangement with Jordan Roth and Key to the City Productions. Performances of Galileo will take place at Berkeley Rep's Roda Theatre.

The search doesn't suck...

The vast majority of us on here have complained about the search. I hit the message board button when searching.

If truth be told, this entire antiquated site needs a major reboot. However, most of us have become accustomed to its creaking machinations. Now, the name "Galileo" has worked very well so far in song, why not as a whole musical?
