This all-male cast brings humor to a brand-new dramedy about retirement now playing on a Houston stage

HOUSTON – The world premiere of Coconut Cake is making its way across the nation — and now, it’s hitting the stage at The Ensemble Theatre in Houston. The heartfelt dramedy centers around five retired men navigating life, friendship, and the surprises that come with slowing down.

Lead roles aren’t just for the young—Coconut Cake puts older characters front and center, reminding us that personal growth, laughter, and a little drama don’t end at retirement.

The production runs through June 1 at The Ensemble Theatre in Midtown Houston. Click here to grab your tickets.
