South London Theatre presents: These Shining Lives by Melanie Marnich
These Shining Lives is a powerful and poignant play telling the true story of the women who worked at the Radium Dial Company in the 1920s and 30s, painting watch dials with glowing radium paintunaware of the deadly consequences.
This deeply moving drama follows the journey of four courageous women as they fight for justice after discovering that their work has poisoned them. These Shining Lives is not just a story of corporate negligence, but of resilience, friendship, and the strength of the human spirit, as the women band together to take on their employer in a landmark legal battle that changes American labour laws forever.
