Sarah Ellen Miller is Movement Designer for "Galileo's Daughter"

Sarah Ellen Miller of Lincoln Square is part of the creative team as movement designer in Remy Bumppo Theatre Company’s final production of its 2022-2023 season, the world premiere of “Galileo’s Daughter” by Jessica Dickey and directed by Marti Lyons, April 5 - May 14, at Theater Wit, 1229 W. Belmont Avenue.

Rattled by a personal crisis, a playwright flees to Florence to study the letters between Galileo Galilei and his eldest daughter, Maria Celeste. Maria Celeste, caught up in the threats against her father, must abandon her work and join a convent. Alternating between past and present timelines, award-winning playwright Jessica Dickey’s captivating world premiere features the directorial debut of Artistic Director Marti Lyons for Remy Bumppo and is a personal examination of faith, forgiveness and the cost of heeding one’s truth.
