MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee Repertory Theater's production of Titanic, the Musical opens Tuesday and runs through May 15 at the Quadracci Powerhouse. The April 14 performance will be especially noteworthy, as art will be imitating life exactly 110 years after the luxury liner struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Mike Strehlow introduced a longtime member of the Milwaukee Rep family who also has a special connection with the worldwide family of Titanic descendants.
