Plans for the complex include two theatrical spaces, as well as an education wing supporting programs for children, adults, and families, a welcome garden, and a grand lobby featuring an atrium café.

Fundraising is underway and architectural planning has commenced. Additional project details will be announced at a future date. Gulfshore Playhouse was founded in 2004.
