"Turn-of-the-century New York’s political underworld and immigrant energy come to life in this new play focused on the tumultuous love affair between the legendary political boss 'Big Tim' Sullivan, roguish and colorful 'King of the Bowery,' and the beautiful actress and reformer Margaret Holland. After years of an adulterous affair that produced a daughter, the notorious Tammany Hall power broker and the Seven Sisters’ graduate find themselves inextricably bound by the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire of 1911."
