On Friday, the cast of Radium Girls, <\/em>our winter projection that runs Feb 10, 11, & 12 at 7:00 pm, participated in a Q+A with playwright D.W. Gregory. She shared great insight into how she researched the material to write the play. The students had prepared thoughtful questions and it elicited great conversation with Ms. Gregory. This experience will surely give the Drama Club a deeper insight into this already insightful play.<\/div>\n
