Brecht Play - The Life of Galileo

Had free tickets last night to see a play at the U. of Tennessee' Clarence Brown Theater and we saw Berthold Brecht's The Life of Galileo. First play I've seen in many years. Quite enjoyable. Of course we get the cartoon version of the science and the events surrounding G's house arrest, due to the limitations imposed by time, venue and audience. They call G a physicist in the play but I was thinking the term wasn't applied quite that early. Will have to check on it. I play a physicist in real life. Now off to work to horse around with some optical fiber. Wonder what he would have thought about that?
