"Radium Girls" performance photos
Over the weekend, our actors brought to life the story of "Radium Girls" under the direction of Theatre Director Jane McEneaney. Inspired by a true story, "Radium Girls" traces the efforts of Grace Fryer (Riley Frey '18), a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court. Her chief adversary is her former employer, Arthur Roeder (Bella Silva '18), an idealistic man who cannot bring himself to believe that the same element that shrinks tumors could have anything to do with the terrifying rash of illnesses among his employees. As the case goes on, however, Grace finds herself battling not just with the U.S. Radium Corporation, but with her own family and friends, who fear that her campaign for justice will backfire.
