The Sisters; or, Galileo's Penance': History and Science Through the Eyes of Two Forgotten Women
They're sisters. And they're nuns. And their father is a famous heretic - Galileo. 24 Carrot Productions presents The Sisters; or, Galileo's Penance, an original play based on the true story of Galileo's illegitimate daughters. Confined to a convent at a young age, their interest in science and religion was not considered important on the world stage. But their frustration and confusion, and ultimately their bond, is still relatable today.
