Scandal! Water Park

The Dad’s Garage fan-favorite improvised soap opera returns for season 26! Presenting: SCANDAL! Waterpark!

​​Family-owned Old Froth Ward, once the ultimate summer destination and a bastion of aquatic excess, is now on the brink of closure due to increased accidents, bad investments, failed rides, rumored water issues, and internal family drama. As the summer season begins, unsettling questions arise amongst the park and the public like floaters in a churning wave pool of uncertainty: What is the future of Old Froth Ward? Will a corporate giant convert the park into a luxury resort, or will the current ownership's grandiose ambitions revive it? Or will it become an abandoned relic washed away in the splashing stream of capitalism's water coaster? The park’s future hinges on the decisions made in the heat of this summer's primetime season when corporate greed, summer jobs, and family drama collide! 


Will Old Froth Ward evolve to outlast the 1990s, or be doomed by past mistakes? Find out in SCANDAL! Waterpark (sploosh!)
