These Shining Lives
By Melanie Marnich
Catherine and her friends were ordinary women, taking pride in their jobs painting
watches for the Radium Dial Company. Until they learned that the work they loved was
literally killing them - and the company knew. Refusing to disappear quietly, their
choice to hold the company accountable shone a bright light on the human costs of
corporate negligence. This beautifully theatrical play shares the story of these ordinary,
extraordinary real-life women.
