Radium Girls
Calling Cast and Crew to Audition for ‘Radium Girls’ with
Bandon Playhouse
BANDON - Come play with Bandon Playhouse! Auditions for “Radium Girls,” a play written by D.W. Gregory and directed by Stephanie Jones, will be held at 6 p.m. December 11, 12 and 13, 2023 at the Sprague Community Theater in Bandon City Park, 1202 11th St. SW. Play rehearsals will begin in January. Performances are scheduled for two weekends– Feb. 23, 24, 25, and March 1, 2, and 3, 2024, at the Sprague Community Theater.
"Radium Girls" is based on a true story from the 1920s, when radium was hailed as a miracle cure and luminous watch dials were a craze. The action follows a watch dial painter who has contracted a mysterious illness as she struggles with her employer, her family, and public opinion for recognition and justice.
This fast-paced, highly theatrical play explores the intersection of science and culture and celebrates the resiliency of the human spirit. Fans of historic film and TV dramas such as “Call the Midwife,” “Hidden Figures,” and “Erin Brockovich,” are sure to be inspired by “Radium Girls.”
The play features roles for 9 to 20 actors ages 15 and older who play more than 30 characters, including watch factory co-workers and friends, lovers, relatives, attorneys, scientists, consumer advocates, and myriad bystanders. Interested stage crew members are also invited to attend auditions.
