Mason High School Theater Presents Radium Girls by D.W. Gregory

MASON, OHIO – Audiences are invited to witness the gripping and poignant true story of labor, courage, and corporate cover-up in D.W. Gregory’s powerful docudrama, Radium Girls. The production, presented by the acclaimed Mason High School Theatre program, sheds light on the plight of the young women who worked in the radium-dial painting factories of the 1920s, unknowingly poisoning themselves with the very substance they were told was harmless.

Set in 1926, when radium was a “miracle cure” and luminous watches were the latest craze, the play is inspired by the true story of the dial painters who began to fall ill with a mysterious disease. Radium Girls traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court against the formidable U.S. Radium Corporation, whose president cannot bring himself to believe that the same element that shrinks tumors could be killing his employees. The play is a fast-moving, highly theatrical ensemble piece that fiercely examines the commercialization of science, corporate exploitation, and the cost of justice.
