Big Picture is the only venue to pair a state of the art digital theatre with a stylish and comfortable lounge to create a boutique meeting and event facility. Our versatile venue has hosted all kinds of meetings, satellite broadcasts, product launches, private movie screenings, live musical concerts and parties. Clients tell us that they feel Big Picture helps inspire creativity during their meetings and encourages interaction and relaxation during social functions. This unique venue also lends itself to creating themed events. Below we share a few ideas:
Private Movie Screenings
Pick a favorite movie and build a theme around it. We can play DVD and VHS movies - simply bring your selection. We can order movie posters for you and place them in the entry poster case, at the end of the party, raffle off the posters. Reinforce the theme through music selection in the lounge. Some popular movie choices include:
- James Bond themes including 007 Martinis (shaken, not stirred).
- Casablanca - who can resist the elegance of Bogart and Bacall?
- The Matrix - the ultimate adrenaline adventure, no one sleeps through this movie!
Casino Night
Whether you prefer Roulette, Black Jack or Baccarat the stakes are the same – a little healthy competition can be a whole lot of fun. Challenge each individual or team to win the most “money”. At night’s end, the high rollers trade “money” for prizes. Show Casino Royale or a vintage Bond movie to reinforce the theme and play cool jazz in the lounge.
Musical Events
Live Performances
Host your own “unplugged” style concert experience. The intimacy of our theatre creates a dynamic that is absolutely incredible. Acoustical treatment guarantees that the performance sounds amazingly clear and rich. We can arrange for a videographer to record the performance and play it back simultaneously on the screen behind the performers. Guests dance in the front theatre area, in the aisles or simply soak up the experience in one of our plush theatre seats. Martinis and music – what an awesome combination!
DJ Parties
To keep the energy high and your guests moving, look into arranging for a DJ. DJ Leslie can tap into our amazing 12-speaker theatre sound system and keep you grooving all night long. Pick a campy Elvis movie and show it on the screen behind the dance floor.
Cooking Demonstrations
A wonderful team building and mouthwatering experience! The chef sets up a portable kitchen at the front of the theatre. Greet your guests with a glass of champagne, usher them into the theatre and let them watch the experts work their magic! Spend on hour being tempted by the heady food scents and beautiful food, then wander into the lounge and enjoy a buffet brimming with all the food showcased by the chef.
Sporting Events
Build a theme around football, baseball and basketball games – and don’t forget the World Series, Superbowl and Championship games! Guests will enjoy the game on our 10’by 20’ theatre screen where every seat offers a skybox view. Offer your guests a buffet that captures the spirit of the sport.
