Blog #8 The Life of Galileo - Review

The play was about a very important person in science. Galileo discovered many things in science and invented the telescope, but he had a hard life. He was poor, and people did not agree with some of the things that he found out. Many people seemed to think that he was crazy.
            This is a hard story to tell in a play, but the play was very good. I liked the person who played Galileo. He is a very good actor. He made me feel like he was angry because people would not believe him about what he had found in science. The clothes worn during the play were good, but I don’t know how people dressed during that time in history. There were times when I could not understand what the actors were saying, because they were talking too fast.
I think that the people from the Church were very bad because they would not even look at what Galileo had found. They just said that he was wrong because what he had found did not agree with what the Church believed. After he got into trouble with the Church, he was arrested. Later, he died. After a while, the Church had to tell people that Galileo had been right.

I would recommend people see the play, but they should read about Galileo first. Reading about Galileo will help you understand what is going on in the play.
