When a fire broke out in the MainStage Theater at UWM’s Peck School of the Arts earlier this year, it caused millions of dollars in damage. Fortunately no one was injured, but the fire could not have come at a worse time as students were headed into the closing weeks of the school year with final projects and performances.
As the fall semester of a new school year gets underway, we thought it was a good time for an update on where things stand with repairing all of the damage from the fire and whether things are back to normal at the Peck School – the only school of the arts in the UW System. Joining us in the studio is Dean Scott Emmons.
