After a successful tour of the US, and a sold-out run at the Brighton Fringe Festival, RSC veteran Tim Hardy brings his solo show \u2018The Trials Of Galileo\u2019 to the Market Place Theatre in Armagh.<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u2018The Trials Of Galileo\u2019 focuses on the events surrounding his trial for heresy in 1633. Galileo’s tragedy was a mistaken belief that all he had to do was show the church his reasoning and his evidence and the church would fall in behind him. He understood the science better than any man alive, but never grasped the politics. Until it was too late. \u2018The Trials Of Galileo\u2019 will be staged on Thursday 23rd<\/sup> October at 8pn. Tickets are priced \u00a314.50 and \u00a312.50 (concession).<\/p>\n

Following the huge success of the inaugural event in August why not come along to the second \u2018Family Super Saturday\u2019 on Saturday 25th<\/sup> October. First up, why not enjoy a family lunch at the bistro with tasty food for parents and kids to enjoy [separate cost].<\/p>\n

Then join the Three Billy Goats Gruff and watch their tussle with a grumpy Troll, who is determined to stop them crossing the bridge. Lots of trippety-trap and fun with these beautifully made cloth puppets. Then enjoy the second element of the \u2018Jack And Billy\u2019 show with a lively version of the famous story about Jack who plants a magic bean, grows a beanstalk and ventures into the Giant’s Castle\u2026 Faithful to the original stories, Clydebuilt Puppet Theatre have created a show with baskets and boxes that become a house or even a castle. Just bring your imagination. Performances of \u2018Jack And Billy\u2019 take place at 2pm and 3.30pm.<\/p>\n

After the show, come along to our workshop and games session where kids can take part in the themed \u2018Fun-Craft\u2019 workshop, have their face painted, enjoy balloon modelling, play \u2018hook a duck\u2019 and \u2018tin can alley\u2019. There will also be fancy dress competitions with prizes for \u2018Best Dressed Boy\u2019 and \u2018Best Dressed Girl\u2019. Admission to Family Super Saturday is only \u00a36 and is recommended for age 4+.
