Your own personal experience with the play:
A great play about science and ethics. It's about a factory that produces radium dial watches. The women workers are getting sick and dying. One woman stands up to her evil boss. It is a "Norma Rae" like story. It has about 7-8 female parts and 3-4 male parts. I don't have the play at home with me....check it out on the Internet.
What you liked and disliked about the play:
Great parts. We could involve University Seminar classes and local high schools and hold discussions about the issues raised in the play afterward.
