Gulfshore Playhouse raises more than $1.4 million at The Loverly Gala

From lively horse races, to emotional tributes from donors, and even a show-stopping performance by the stars of the 2016 Gulfshore Playhouse production of “My Fair Lady,” The Loverly Gala was an evening of memorable moments, and confirmation of the importance of live, in-person performing arts throughout Southwest Florida.

Raising more than $1.4 million for the Annual Fund for Artistic Excellence, Gulfshore Playhouse welcomed guests to an Edwardian-themed evening, transforming The Ritz-Carlton Beach Resort into London’s busy streets adorned with opulence and extravagance as lords and ladies took part in a celebration featuring live entertainment, Broadway actors, and numerous giving opportunities.
