Directed by Andrew William Smith, starring Lisa Velten Smith
Sly Howard Baker offers 16th century Venice as the setting to provoke 21st century audiences, Rebel female painter Galactia is commissioned by the Doge to paint a vast canvas celebrating a triumphant battle. Yes, there are tensions between personal ambition and moral responsibility seen through the lens of sexual politics. But this play defies expectation (you’ll laugh quite a bit) and how you feel at the end is anyone’s guess. Note: Oxford Dictionary's first definition of the word ‘execution’… to ‘carry out, render.’

In 1926, radium was a miracle cure, Madame Curie an international celebrity, and luminous watches 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. 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." - Dramatic Publishing
