Just another day at the Factory…
Washington Place is a stirring slice-of-life drama that honors the indomitable spirit of immigrant women forging new paths in America. The women of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in New York City all come from different walks of life and backgrounds but are able to come together to share their daily struggles, dreams, and the camaraderie of being working women in a new era. But as they fight for better working conditions and fair treatment, a tragic fire breaks out, leading to devastating consequences. Penned by acclaimed local playwright David Brendan Hopes, Washington Place celebrates resilience, solidarity, and the enduring legacy of those who paved the way for a better tomorrow.
