Caulfield Campus students shine in 'Radium Girls'

Our Caulfield Campus Senior students captivated audiences with a compelling performance of Radium Girls, a powerful play that follows a group of young women working in factories during World War I, painting watch faces with glow-in-the-dark paint. As demand for the luminous timepieces soared – driven by the needs of soldiers on the front lines – the workers were unknowingly exposed to radium, a newly discovered element celebrated at the time as a miracle of modern science.

The production showcased the extraordinary talent, commitment and depth of our senior actors, who brought to life a true story of resilience, injustice and the fight for truth. Brimming with heart and honesty, the performance cast a quiet light that lingered well beyond the final scene.
