About this experience
Galileo: A New Musical opens at the Shubert Theatre on Broadway, with first performances from 10 November 2026 and opening night on 6 December 2026. Raúl Esparza stars in the title role, his first Broadway appearance in more than 13 years. Galileo: a new rock musical on Broadway Galileo tells the story of the astronomer who turned a telescope on the night sky, found evidence that the Earth moves around the Sun, and was forced to answer for it. The score is contemporary rock rather than period pastiche, and the show follows a man of both faith and science colliding with an institution that has already decided what the truth is allowed to be. It premiered at Berkeley Repertory Theatre in 2024 before this Broadway transfer. Raúl Esparza leads the Galileo cast Raúl Esparza, a four-time Tony Award nominee, plays Galileo Galilei, with Joy Woods and Jeremy Kushnier.
