The Narrow Gate - A Staged Reading

Seasoned actors Joanne and Scott Kopischke will be joining Matt Umstot and others to present a staged reading of Scott’s play "The Narrow Gate" at Unitarian Universalist Church West, 13001 W. North Ave. in Brookfield on September 27th at 2:00 PM. "The Narrow Gate" is the story of Galileo Galilei and his imprisonment by the Catholic Church during the Inquisition in the 17th century, told with elegance and a sly sense of humor.

Though forced to recant his theories by the Office of the Inquisition to stave off threats to his family, Galileo’s indomitable spirit and thirst for knowledge and truth triumph while exploring questions on the nature of the universe. Through the assistance of his servant and pupil, Katarina, Bishop Piccolomini, and his friend John Milton, he is able to complete his discourse on the two new sciences.

Join us! A free will offering, benefitting Unitarian Universalist Church West, will be accepted at the door.
