The time is 1926. How could a miracle cure that shrinks tumors cause a terrifying rash of illnesses among young female dial painters? Inspired by the true story of Grace Fryer, Radium Girls is a gripping play that explores her fight for the establishment of workers’ safety regulations and of young women fighting injustices in the workplace.

by D.W. Gregory
