Opera About 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire Depicts Universality Of Immigrant Experience

The 107th anniversary today of the fire at the Triangle shirtwaist factory in NYC—in which almost 150 workers died—is being marked by site-specific performances of Ricky Ian Gordon’s opera, Morning Star, about an immigrant family on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, at a museum in that neighborhood.
