Classes resume today.
The Maedgen Theatre remains closed temporarily due to a fire near the main stage.
Beginning Thursday (Jan. 18) classes normally held in the theater building will be
held primarily to the Administration Building. The theater offices will also temporarily
move to the Administration Building.
The fire broke out shortly after midnight Wednesday (Jan. 17) in the electrician’s
work area near the main stage. The fire was contained quickly. No one was injured.
There is some water and smoke damage to the stage area. Damage estimates are not yet
available. It is not known at this time when the building will be reopened.
