The curtain is rising on an exciting new era at The Newport Playhouse and Cabaret Restaurant. Jonathan Perry of The Newport Playhouse has joined forces with Patrick and Craig Kilroy of The Newport Waterfront Landing to launch Playhouse Kitchen — a fresh dining experience that blends coastal Newport charm with a dash of Nashville spirit.

​

With over 90 years of combined experience in the restaurant industry, the partners bring a deep passion for hospitality, community, and the arts. Together, they aim to celebrate Newport’s vibrant culture by pairing great food, live entertainment, and genuine local flavor.

“The Newport Playhouse has been a home for laughter, good food, and great memories for more than four decades,” said Jonathan Perry, owner of The Newport Playhouse. “With The Playhouse Kitchen, we’re adding a new layer of energy and creativity while staying true to what our guests love about us.”
