Port Dover: The Lighthouse Festival opens with “Doris and Ivy in the Home” on May 22

Tuesday, May 14, 2024

Our 2024 Summer Season is just around the corner and we're kicking it off with a real knee-slapper! Get ready for Norm Foster's Doris & Ivy in the Home

Retired prison guard Doris Mooney has just moved into Paradise Village, a retirement home in Canmore, Alberta. She quickly befriends Ivy Hoffbauer, a former world champion skier who’s taken aback by Doris’s cheerful brashness. Rounding out the trio is dapper Arthur Beech who has designs on Ivy. 

Love, gossip and sex behind the compost heap, this is Foster at his hilarious best.
