DESCRIPTION:TRIANGLE \nWritten & performed by Elaine Ocasio. Developed with and 
 Directed by Rod Menzies.\nTRIANGLE commemorates the 100th anniversary of 
 the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire by exploring where the responsibility 
 rests to prevent a similar tragedy from happening today. The fire and 
 deaths in 1911 led to the rejuvenation of the trade union movement 
 including mass unionization of garment workers throughout the country and 
 the successful fight for health and safety protective legislation. Laws 
 were finally written protecting health and safety on the job yet today 
 these are under attack nationally.  Workers still are dying  in locked 
 buildings including 25 trapped chicken plant workers  at the Hamlet 
 Imperial Food Product plant in North Carolina in 1991. Just last year, 21 
 garment workers in a high-rise building in Bangladesh perished because of 
 the exact same conditions one hundred years ago.  Elaine Ocasio is an LA 
 based writer/performer. Her solo show “All I Ever Wanted” premiered at 
 the Santa Monica Playhouse in 2009. She is a proud member of IBEW Local 45.
