Present Day Expandable Casting American Comedy

Synopsis

A violent thunderstorm rages, a drug dealer is on the loose, the police comb the area for an escaped mental patient, and in the middle of it all sits stately Silver Crest Manor, a once respected nursing home.

On the outside a seemingly benign and placid place; on the inside, a setting for a devious plot masterminded by a trio of greedy scoundrels.

Hilarity abounds amidst the confusion as patients disappear, identities are mistaken, and double dealing is revealed.

Hold on to your walkers because Losing Patients will keep you guessing and laughing right up to the surprise finish.
