These Shining Lives

By: Melanie Marnich

These Shining LIves tells the true story of a Chicago watch factory in the 1920s and four extraordinary women who painted luminous numbers of clock and watch faces. As the women develop deep friendships, they begin to suffer from mysterious ailments. As they discover the truth, the women must fight for justice as well as their very survival. Melanie Marnich's moving play is an exploration of industrial neglect, corporate responsibility, and an uplifting tribute to their courage and the strength and resilience of the human spirit.Angel Street will be presented Friday at 7:30, Saturdays at 7:30, and Sundays at 2:30 from June 2-25th.
