Welcome to Pelican Roost, a full service retirement village for those embracing their twilight years (and the wackiness that comes along with them). It is home to some very colorful characters who definitely aren’t your average Boggle and Dominoes playing bunch. Pelican Roost is a place where buffoonery lives next door to screwball, just across the way from cockamamie! It’s like having a blind date with a real memory problem! The show’s host couple enters heaven, suspecting their son pulled the plug to get his hands on Dad’s vintage Corvette. They don’t seem to mind—instead they take the audience on an uproarious journey that celebrates the latter years. This delightfully funny showpokes fun at the senior situations that seem to constantly bombard us asweget older. This vaudeville-esque revuewill definitely knock you off your rocker!
