These Shining LIves

Posted in: Theatre

Visit Midland Center for the Arts for Center Stage Theatre’s production of These Shining Lives, the story of the independent and glowing ‘Radium Girls’, which chronicles the compelling true story of the young women who painted the faces of luminous watches with radioactive paint in the ‘20’s and ‘30’s. We follow Catherine Donohue, who begins working with the excitement of a newly liberated woman entering the workforce, through her cancer diagnosis and the litigation she relentlessly pursued against Radium. This transcendent story is a tale of resilience and triumph, as the women refuse to allow the company that stole their health to kill their spirits—or endanger the lives of those who came after them.
