Lampeter-Strasburg High School, 1600 Book Road, Lancaster, will present its fall play, "Radium Girls," at 7 p.m. on Thursday to Saturday, Nov. 10 to 12, in the school's Performing Arts Center.

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.

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 his employees' illnesses. As the case goes on, however, Fryer finds herself battling not just with the U.S. Radium Corporation, but also with her own family and friends, who fear that her campaign for justice will backfire.

Separate ticket prices have been set for adults and for students and seniors. To purchase tickets, call 717-808-1565, email info@l-spioneers.org or visit http://www.l-spioneers.org/news/ and look for "LSHS Fall Play - Radium Girls." Tickets will also be available at the door.
