There's only so much history Timeline can cover in its regular season. To that end, Chicago’s most charmingly professorish theatre company has instituted Time Pieces, a new and newish play-reading series that will learn you on everything from 1968 to World War I. This Tuesday's one-night-only presentation features "The Triangle Factory Fire Project" by Christopher Piehler. This play, which uses archival material to recreate a 1911 Manhattan fire that killed 146 factory workers, has been produced to strong reviews in New York.
