When tomorrow comes today, it’ll be today, and the days of yesterday will be …yester.
FROM SOAP GUIDE WEEKLY, DECEMBER 1977
Tune in to Days of Yesterday on December 7, 1977 as Port Valley Mountain celebrates the retirement of beloved Police Chief, Mickey McMickernick at his favorite watering hole, The Roguelike Tavern. All your favorites will be there: Rich and Regina Richington, lovebirds Larry and Laurie, docs and nurses from Major General Hospital, feuding twins Cairo and Rome, and of course McMickernick’s ever-present assistant, Barb (a Piña Colada and a box of Virginia Slims coming up, Barb!). Oh, Barb.
It’ll be a send-off fit for Port Valley Mountain’s best, but it won’t be without its drama. After all, McMickernick put away a lot of bad guys in his day, and plenty want revenge. Who can forget the way he decimated the Russian Taxidermy Spy Ring or his efforts to unmask the villains behind secret society E.V.L.? Plus, there’s the question of his successor: will the job go to his deputy, Jackson McCord or the suave new cop who breezed in from Fir Valley, Rogue Thaxson? How far will people go to get this most coveted job in Port Valley Mountain? Stay tuned!
how does this work?
Dust off your earth-toned polyester slacks and skirts and feather your hair, because ladies and gents, on December 7, 2025 at the THE ROGUELIKE TAVERN in Burbank, CA, we’re rolling the clocks back to 1977 for the hottest soap opera in history, The Days of Yesterday.
HOW THIS WORKS: Everyone plays a character, but you don’t need to be an actor to play. Your sign up is a short questionnaire that shares your comfort level, style, and other guests you’d love to play with: a bold diva, vengeful nurse, bumbling doctor, rebellious dock worker, a subtle spy? They’re all options, and you can play as big or small as you’d like.
WE NEED YOUR SIGN UP AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE SO WE CAN CREATE YOUR CHARACTER!
Arrive at The Roguelike Tavern in your ‘70s best, grab a drink, and mingle before the action starts. Doors open at 5:00 pm so you can begin consuming your two drink minimum and grab some tasty bites which is seriously fresh and delicious! Plus, an order of the tasty “Plot Tots,” comes with a side of a free clue! Try the Days of Yesterday’s signature cocktail, “The Rosarita Jewel” (boozy or non) and we’ll slip you some secret intel to will help you locate the missing Jewel hidden somewhere at the event.
You’ll be sent your character bio long before the event with backstory, goals and motives, plus a Who’s Who of the cast that you can keep handy for reference.
The action runs from 6:00 -8:00 pm. With a few pro actors folded in the mix plus instructions slipped to you throughout the evening, even the shyest characters will be busy with uncovering clues, engaged in the unfolding dramas … and murder. At the end, all will be revealed, and you’ll get to compare notes out of character.
