How about a show set at the Grove Park? I don’t know, maybe the long-standing lounge act singer there discovers that she has two pre-teen boys that she didn’t know about or something and they move in with her at the GPI and cause all sorts of havoc and have zany antics and madcap mayhem! There could be a character who is an heir to the Grove Estate and super attractive concierge or something, plus a stuffy-yet-secretly-has-a-heart-of-gold General Manager who tries each episode to head off the boys’ plans, yet in the end joins in the fun or, at least, comes to understand what the boys were up to.
It could be a blast!
The Grove Park Inn always reminds me of The Shining, so I’m thinking horror is a better bet here. We might learn what makes that roast beef dinner worth $140.
I was just going to post the same thing. I was trapped in the Grove Park at an Addy Awards ceremony one February night circa 1986, during a large snowstorm and walking around those cavernous, empty halls with snow piling up in the dark outside was so creepy, I swear I was terrified to turn the corner for fear of seeing those damned twin girls standing there beckoning me to come play with them, forever. and ever. and ever.
