Oriental Theatre reopens after nearly 6 weeks of renovation work

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- After nearly six weeks of renovation work, the Oriental Theatre on Milwaukee's east side reopened Friday.

The 91-year-old landmark has two new movies opening in the Oriental Theatre's smaller theaters.

The Oriental's main theater will reopen next Friday, August 17.

'Milwaukee Film' which runs Milwaukee Film Festival began a 31-year lease of the Oriental on July 1 and started a multimillion-dollar rennovation.
