Dan For Mayor follows the title character, a 30-something bartender who lives and works in the fictional city of Wessex, Ontario. Dan has had the same friends since grade school, his most prized possession is a vintage Ms. Pac-Man game, and his last serious relationship was with a girl who is now engaged to someone else. His life seems to be firmly on the path to more of the same…until a chance comment suddenly puts him in the running for mayor of Wessex. With an incredible cast, and appearances by three real-life majors, this creative new comedy is sure to entertain!
