Surprisingly not much. Fire was limited to the house right curtain, and
right after those shots the stage sprinklers went off and put out the
fire. Firemen said they got most of the smoke cleared out that night.
They were dark on Thursday anyway, so they brought in extra crew to
clean up. According to the CEO of the theatre who was interviewed on
the Thursday evening news, they were getting the curtain replaced and
the stage dried and cleaned in time for "Riverdance" to load in Friday
morning. As far as I know, Riverdance went on Friday night as planned.
I'm just amazed at how fast the curtain went up. It would appear that
someone was a little behind in the fire-retardant treatments.
