Gulfshore Playhouse Adds Regional Culinary Leader Brian Roland To Consultant Team

Gulfshore Playhouse, Naples’ premier professional theatre, has announced Brian Roland of Crave Culinaire/Venue Naples has joined the consultant team designing the Food and Beverage program for the new Theatre and Education Center. Currently in the design development phase, the Next Stage Capital Campaign is rounding the corner on $25 million raised toward the construction goal for the new theatre, which will be built at the corner of Goodlette-Frank Road and First Avenue South.

“I was honored to be asked to serve as an advisor to review culinary operation decisions,” said Roland. “Right now, I’m guiding conversations around dining services for the new bar and café. We met with the design team to ensure functionality of the space to best serve the Playhouse patrons.”

“Brian’s experienced, professional perspective is a huge asset for us as we plan how we’re incorporating food and beverage from the beginning,” said Kristen Coury, Founder and Producing Artistic Director of Gulfshore Playhouse. “We really appreciate his commitment to Gulfshore Playhouse, and we’re excited to continue working together as the new facility becomes a reality.”
