Construction will begin Wednesday on a new $9.6 million downtown theater called the La Crosse Performing Arts Center. In a press conference Wednesday, the La Crosse Community Theatre and Viterbo University announced they had formed a partnership and set a new fundraising goal for the Front Street theater. The community theater group had announced earlier this year a plan to raise $6.7 million to build a 23,000 square-foot theater center on Front Street. The Performing Arts Center will be 30,000 square feet, seat 450 and cost about $3 million more to accommodate extra space and state-of-the-art technology for Viterbo students. The partners have raised about 75 percent of the cost to build the center's shell. They expect to occupy the building by January 2013.
