A Timed Speed Read of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire Trial Transcript with Additional Notes

A highlight of the 2019 Mayworks Festival calendar, this dramatic trial re-creation sees three actors reach 100 years into the past, speed reading the transcripts of the 1911 trial that followed a factory fire which killed 146 people. "The highly contentious trial spurred the public to demand workplace safety reforms and became a touchstone for radical and progressive political movements," Mayworks adds.
