Theatre Spaces That Inspire!

I saw this picture of the interior of the Bijou Theatre and fell in love. (American Theatre October 2011) It's a refurbished movie house in Bridgeport, Connecticut but it has cabaret and regular seating.

"True to its heritage, over 100 years later, one of the oldest buildings used as a movie house in the country, is now poised for a revival, as envisioned in the Bijou Square renaissance. The Bijou Theatre is a multi–functional venue with integrity and an open minded philosophy. A symposium for film, theatre, art, comedy and music."

The Bijou "aspires to be a cultural playground". Although independent films and cultural art performances will be the main events, the theater plans to offer "a steady stream of music, comedy and theatrical productions"!
