Sandy Actors Theatre Presents “Aboveboard”

By Daniel Bosserman

A Romantic Classic Situation Comedy with Heart, Laughter, and a Touch of Mischief
Sandy, OR – AUG 15th, 2024 – Sandy Actors Theatre is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of “Aboveboard,” a delightful comedy penned by Peter Bloedel and Emily Kimball. Directed by the talented Patrick Roth, the play will open on September 20 and run through October 13.
“Aboveboard” promises to deliver an engaging blend of humor and heart, as described by Director Patrick Roth: “It’s a romantic classic situation comedy with a lot of heart, a lot of laughter, and a little groping.” The story follows Nick, who discovers that food is mysteriously vanishing from his apartment fridge. Suspicion falls on his bumbling magician best friend, Milo, who lives just down the hall. When Milo refuses to come clean, Nick resorts to installing a camera, only to uncover an even more surprising truth — an unexpected trespasser has been secretly living in his apartment for nearly a month.
The production features an impressive cast, including:
Sam Helzer as Milo, the endearing magician with a knack for comedic mishaps
Dylan Horter as Nick, the perplexed protagonist dealing with disappearing food and secrets
Savannah Wakeman as Marnie, adding charm and wit to the ensemble
Olivia Randall as Jessica, bringing depth to the story’s romantic elements
Grady Voigt as Alex, contributing to the play’s dynamic interactions
Kat Wolfdancer as Rosa, adding a unique flair to the narrative.
Enjoy the show in comfort in our newly-installed, brand-new theater seats.
Director Patrick Roth brings a wealth of experience to the production, holding a Certificate of Acting from the Actors Conservatory in Portland. Roth’s work has been deeply influenced by the late Philip Cuomo, renowned for his expertise in clowning.
