The fire curtain dropped, so the fire was contained in the stage. The whole left side of the stage burned. The sprinklers came on, which helped with the fire, but destroyed the whole electrical system and the lights. The rest of the building is ok, but stinks really bad. They will have to replace and rebuild everything on/around the stage and the electrical system. My guess is $500,000 or more to rebuild.

I am really impressed with the department. A huge show was supposed to start Thursday. Today they were working really hard to get a new space so the show can go on. It will take more than a ruined stage to bring good people and a good show down!
