Triangle
Temple Sinai will be hosting a special community showing of Vermont Stage's "Triangle" by Laurie Brooks, a stylistically thrilling play about the young immigrants who worked at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory leading up to its infamous fire of 1911. The play will be followed by a theatrical companion piece focusing on the Jewish story behind the story. Show runs about 1.5 hrs, followed by a reception, hosted by Sisterhood, in the social hall.
