UW Madison Play Circle Seating

University of Wisconsin - Madison

Madison, WI

The Wisconsin Union Theater and the Fredric March Play Circle Theater at the Madison campus re-opened in the Fall of 2014 after an extensive renovation of Union Theater, Play Circle Theater, and sections of the Memorial Union building. This renovation was part of the Memorial Unions Reinvestment project and will protect and preserve the historic 1928 structures. Schuler Shook’s theatre planning services improved accessibility, upgraded infrastructure and equipment, and created stainability throughout the complex.
