Gulfshore Playhouse Sets the Stage for an Unforgettable Season

Experience world-class theatre in the heart of paradise

Naples is no stranger to world-class culture, but Gulfshore Playhouse has raised the curtain on an entirely new era of theatre in Southwest Florida. Under the vision of founder and producing artistic director Kristen Coury, the state-of-the-art Baker Theatre and Education Center—a two-stage home that rivals the best regional theatres in the country—opened in October 2024.

Gulfshore Playhouse produces Broadway-caliber shows built from the ground up, with professional actors, directors, and designers brought in from New York and beyond. Visitors can expect spectacular productions ranging from holiday favorites to world premieres and hit musicals, all designed to entertain and inspire.

Beyond the stage, the Baker Theatre and Education Center is alive with opportunity. The Playhouse offers dynamic classes for both adults and children, ensuring that theatre is accessible to all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re a visitor seeking an inspiring evening or a local looking to dive into Naples’ cultural heartbeat, Gulfshore Playhouse offers an experience that is engaging, entertaining, and unforgettable.

The team at Gulfshore Playhouse has long envisioned Naples as a destination not only for sun and sand but also for world-class theatre. With the opening of their new home last season and this season designed to captivate, that vision is now a reality.
