Call it the marriage of Providence food and entertainment scene.

That's the way Cuban Revolution and Providence's Black Repertory Company are describing the addition of live music into the restaurant's three locations.

That's the other bit of news. Who knew the Cuban Revolution opened a third restaurant, this one in North Carolina?

Cuban Revolution owner Ed Morabito made the announcement that he has joined forces with Donald W. King of the Black Rep. Morabito said King specializes in the creation and development of musical programming, event management, concert promotions and audience development.

"It allows us to support and partner with Providence's Black Repertory Company, as it re-organizes under receivership in the coming months. They are a critical part of the fabric of our community and we can't let them fail."

"Although we've had live music on occasion at the restaurant, this is a chance to program high-caliber entertainment in our restaurants on a regular basis," he added.

Cuban Revolution has a Downcity location at 50 Aborn St., a restaurant at 60 Valley St. and recently opened a 180 seat restaurant in Durham, N.C. at 318 Blackwell St.
