This play is a true story that depicts the typical struggle of the American worker.  It is about the need for the protection of the lives of these workers who worked in a watch factory painting the “glow in the dark” radium on the watches that were being sold in the 1920’s.  It is being presented in the beautiful Duluth Denfeld High School by their theater group on May 1st through May 3rd.  This play is a wonderful educational opportunity for the students, as well as those attending the play.  This play gets at the heart of the relationship between workers and corporations whose only concern is about their bottom line….profit.

The lack of concern by companies for protecting the health, and welfare, of its employees continues today while corporate profits are soaring to heights never before seen on Earth while the wages of the workers, who are largely responsible for those profits, remain at poverty levels.
