Casting Teenagers for Show "Radium Girls"

Hopedale, MA, United States
ID: 588148Exp: 7/13/2025
Description:

Audition for the Show "Radium Girls". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALWNT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: In 1926, radium was hailed as a miracle cure, Madame Curie was an international celebrity, and luminous watches were the latest rage - until the girls who painted them began to fall ill with a mysterious disease. Inspired by a true story, "Radium Girls" traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court. Her chief adversary is her former employer, Arthur Roeder, an idealistic man who cannot bring himself to believe that the same element that shrinks tumors could have anything to do with the terrifying rash of illnesses among his employees. As the case goes on, however, Grace finds herself battling not just with the U.S. Radium Corporation, but with her own family and friends, who fear that her campaign for justice will backfire. Called a "powerful" and "engrossing" drama by critics, Radium Girls offers a wry, unflinching look at the peculiarly American obsessions with health, wealth, and the commercialization of science. Additional info: Show Dates: Friday, October 17 at 7:30 pm Saturday, October 18 at 2 pm & 7:30 pm Audition forms will be presented upon arrival. Please arrive with a resume and headshot, if possible, and with a prepared monologue in the style of the show. If interested, please apply.
