BRUCE MILLER (239) 206-0868 720 5th Avenue South, Suite 201, Naples, FL 34102 [email protected] www.NaplesBeachesRealEstate.com CERTIFIED LUXURY HOME MARKETING SPECIALIST®, REALTOR® Welcome to Gulfshore Playhouse. On behalf of the law firm Denton’s Cohen & Grigsby, we are honored to serve once again as a corporate partner of Gulfshore Playhouse and to play a supporting role in bringing first class, professional theatre to Naples. For more than a decade, Denton’s Cohen & Grigsby has been practicing A Culture of Performance in Southwest Florida, representing clients with sound business counsel, innovative legal thinking, and a powerful understanding of the dynamics that shape our world. We are particularly proud of our collaboration with Gulfshore Playhouse which assists with bringing the arts and education to area schools, including the ThinkTheatre cross-curricular program, the STAR Academy afterschool and summer programs, the community partnerships, and more. Our partnership with Gulfshore Playhouse is a way of extending our firm’s high level of commitment to the arts, enriching the communities in which we serve. We hope you enjoy tonight’s performance and continue to support Gulfshore Playhouse, an exceptional cultural resource and treasure for our community. Sincerely, Jason Hunter Korn Managing Director, Denton’s Cohen & Grigsby, Florida A Letter from the Founder elcome home. I am sure I need not tell you how unspeakably thrilled I am that after EIGHT WMONTHS of darkness we are able to safely gather and present you with a season filled with a variety of unique opportunities created expressly with the safety of our actors, staff, and of course YOU in mind. I don’t know about you, but I am ready to meet with friends (safely, at a distance, with an elbow tap instead of a hug) and enjoy live theatrical offerings once again. I remain committed to the fact that the live experience is unparalleled (live performance and Zoom are just not great partners), and, to that end, we have done everything possible to ensure that you could once again experience the magic of live theatre, while remaining safe. Thank you. Thank you for your support during this most challenging time for arts organizations across the country. Thank you for “going with the flow” throughout our cancelations and for giving us the space to create new opportunities. Thank you for wearing masks and remaining physically distant from your fellow audience members. The world has changed dramatically in the last eight months, and it is impossible to predict when we will get back to something that feels like normal...or at the very least when we can interact unmasked. For now, let us enjoy this bit of solace, the kind that only live theatre can provide. Above all else, we remain steadfast in our belief that theatre stirs the soul, provokes discussion, and invites us to pause and reflect in a way no other artform can. We’ve worked long and hard to get to this moment. I may have taken the blessing of enjoying a piece of live theatre amongst an audience for granted before, but one thing I know is that I never will again. This presentation today, and your presence, is something for which I will be forever grateful. Thank you for being here. Enjoy the show.

As the world, our nation, and Southwest Florida continue to navigate very serious circumstances and challenges, the management team, staff, and Board have been working hard to understand the ever changing issues and plan for the season, and the future, in a responsible, successful manner. Our entire community has responded in a magnificent way. Our patrons, donors, and ticket holders have, through their thoughtful generosity, ensured we have the support to move forward. Our Board of Directors has set the standard in insightful guidance combined with their generosity supporting the annual budget and the Capital Campaign. Our business leaders, generous residents, and government officials have been very helpful in securing our future for the benefit of the entire community. The staff has worked very long, effective hours collaboratively to continually anticipate problems and develop contingencies for the safety and comfort of our audiences, our actors, and our students. They have inspired all of us. They have done so guided by the core values of the organization and are taking the steps now to progress the long term strategic plan. I am delighted that this culminates in a wonderful, safe season during which we continue to produce high-quality professional theatre and student engagement opportunities for our region. Another major jewel is growing in the cultural fabric of our community. Our new Gulfshore Playhouse Cultural Campus featuring the Baker Theatre and Education Center will be an iconic cultural center and artistic home for all of us.

Of the more than 13,000 who saw the production, we welcomed 4,500 guests for their first time to the Playhouse! Now we are thrilled to present a famous day in rock and roll history, as told in Million Dollar Quartet. Hunter Foster played legendary music producer Sam Phillips in the original Broadway production, and has directed the show many times around the country. He’s assembled a terrific cast from those productions, including returning Playhouse artists James Ludwig (Ebenezer Scrooge’s Big Playhouse Christmas Show), Zach Cossman (Buddy) and Ryah Nixon (The Rocky Horror Show). We’re gearing up for our big fundraiser for the year, the fourth Galavant in the Garden, to be held at Barbara and Jay Belding’s beautiful home on Saturday, September 22. Speaking of rock and roll history, our headliner this year is none other than the original girl group star herself, Darlene Love. We first saw Darlene on Broadway in 1985’s Leader of the Pack, and her rendition of “River Deep, Mountain High” became an instant classic.

Our extraordinary host, newly inducted PFF Board Member, actress and comedienne, Julie Halston, is the indefatigable force behind this event.

Our heartfelt thanks to Julie, her co-host Jim Caruso, technical director Ruby Locknar, producer D.
