Costa Mesa High School Drama is delighted to present Radium Girls by D.W. Gregory. This gripping drama is based on the true story of female laborers who were poisoned and killed by their factory’s radium-based paint in the early 20th century.
Written by D.W. Gregory, “Radium Girls” is set in 1926, when radium was a miracle cure, Madame Marie Curie an international celebrity, and glow-in-the-dark watches the latest rage.
That was until the women who painted the watches began to fall ill.
Inspired by a true story, “Radium Girls” traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court seeking compensation for the suffering she and others suffered in the name of profit.
