Searching For Galileo's Daughter Cast

Ryan Sullivan (Robert Goddard)
Here’s my data: By day, I teach high school biology. By night, I usually collapse exhausted and go to bed early, but occasionally I find my way to the stage through community theater with WLCOC (Chess, Merrily We Roll Along, And The World Goes Round, Dogfight) and Calliope Productions (The Last Five Years). I’m grateful to Stephen Murray for the opportunity to be part of this production, and to help tell the story of Worcester’s own Robert Goddard. Goddard once said, “The dreams of yesterday are the hopes of today and the reality of tomorrow.” I hope his story adds a little fuel to whatever dream you’re carrying with you.
Jeanine Belcastro Went (Esther Goddard and Ensemble)
Since her youth, Jeanine has had the privilege of performing in new works. She premiered Stephen Sondheim’s Something Just Broke” in Assassins (Boston University) before it became part of the revised production. She performed in The Gift of the Magi (InStages Musical Theatre Company) inspiring new material written just for her. She also originated roles in Sunshine, Lollipops & Rainbows (Cornerstone Playhouse), The Family: A Mob Musical (G&V Productions at Trinity Rep), and Nellie: The Musical (4 th Wall Stage Company), with Rocket Man’s composer/lyricist and directing team. She thanks the production team for including her in this wonderful production!
