Original Reviews
“Electrically directed by Scott Alan Evans, and dynamically acted by the whole company, it is one of the theatre events of the season. Everyone involved does a brilliant job in this searing play, which reminds us why theatre exists.”
Doug Lyons/New York Post
“A good play is a wonderful distraction. A great play tugs at your emotional core. A truly great play does all that and also affects its audience by triggering memories and influencing one’s view of events. The Triangle Factory Fire is one of the plays that falls into the last category”
Karen Barrow/ Off-Off Online
“Delivers a true emotional punch.”
American Theatre Web
The creative pieces of this puzzle - cast, director, writer and designers - come together beautifully in a collaborative blaze of sadness, energy and poignancy. One can only hope that 100 years from now we might have the same perspective on our own New York tragedy”
