This fall, WEHS Theatre brings Radium Girls to the stage, a story of courage, injustice, and resilience. Based on true events from the 1920s, the play follows Grace Fryer and her fellow factory workers who painted watch dials with glowing radium paint. When they begin to fall ill from radiation poisoning, their fight against the powerful U.S. Radium Corporation sparks one of the earliest workplace safety movements in American history.
