Bijou Theatre

Challenge: Celebrate a Historic Landmark! In June 2006, the Bijou Theatre reopened after extensive renovations. DoubleJay Creative partnered with AC Entertainment to host the reopening celebration and produced an award-winning documentary retracing the history of this local landmark.

Solution: The reopening celebration played to a full 750-seat auditorium and featured a variety of performers paying homage to the theatre’s rich heritage and demonstrating its impressive acoustics. The documentary premiered before this audience and was also simulcast on the local NBC affiliate, WBIR TV10. It subsequently won a Silver Telly Award, the award organization’s highest honor, as well as an Aegis award, recognizing the finest film work in the United States, and a nomination for a regional Emmy Award.
