The Five Flags Bijou Room is home to Fly-By-Night Productions.
"For Fly-By-Night the core of the theatre exists in the actor-audience relationship, hence, the Bijou Room at Five Flags Center. The soul of a performance is not the sets nor the lights or costumes or props. the soul of a performance sings through a spark or current that is established between the actor and audience. The audience is another actor in the play. Even in plays where there is not direct interaction with the audience, the audience must feel included in what is happening. There must be some expectation, some challenge for them. FBNP has built an audience with these expectations."
Doug Donald, co-founder of and
founding artistic director for FBNP

An Incessantly ringing cell phone in a quiet cafe. A stranger at the next table who has had enough. And a dead man - with a lot of loose ends.
