"Radium Girls" is a gripping drama based on the true story of female factory workers poisoned by radium-based paint. The play follows Grace, Irene and Kathryn, who are instructed to shape their paintbrushes with their mouths while painting watch dials. As the women develop serious health problems, they fight for justice against a powerful industry, raising questions about corporate responsibility, workers’ rights and the human cost of pursuing profit.
