Pelican Preserve Town Center is pleased to announce the roll -out of our new access control system.

Dan St. Paul has been chronicling his life on stage as a stand-up comic for 30 years. After turning 50, he discovered his body changing, his memory untrustworthy, and dealing with a teenager and aging parents more challenging than expected. Instead of moaning about it, he created a show. Dan has appeared on NBC, ABC, and Comedy Central. He's also opened for Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, Ringo Starr, Natalie Cole, Hall and Oates, and the San Francisco Symphony ("Knew 'em when they were just a garage band.")
