Theatre South Carolina Presents "Radium Girls" November 13, 2009

Based on the 1920s court case that laid the groundwork for the rights of modern-day workers, “Radium Girls” tells the story of Grace Fryer, a factory worker who discovers she and her coworkers are being knowingly poisoned by their employer, the US Radium Corporation. As the health of Grace and her friends rapidly declines, she finds herself in a battle for justice that pits her against both a powerful company and the community it serves. “Radium Girls” is the work of Pulitzer-Prize-nominated author Dorothy W. Gregory. Directed by special guest artist Shanga Parker, professional television and film actor and Associate Professor of Acting at the University of Washington.

NEW FOR THE 09/10 SEASON: Curtain Times for Theatre South Carolina productions are: Wednesdays through Fridays @ 8pm; Saturdays @ 7pm; Special 1/2 Price Late Night on the first Saturday, 11pm; and 3pm matinee only on final Sunday.
