Sandy Actors Theatre (SAT) proudly celebrates the remarkable success of its 2023–2024 season, captivating audiences with a diverse array of performances that have left lasting impressions. As the curtain falls on this season, SAT eagerly anticipates the excitement that awaits in the upcoming 2024–2025 season.
Amidst much anticipation, SAT announces the debut of Aboveboard by acclaimed playwrights Peter Bloedel and Emily Kimball, directed by Portland actor and director Patrick Roth. This captivating romantic comedy promises to enchant audiences with its blend of magic, misunderstanding and the quirky dynamics of friendship and love.
Set to raise the curtains on September 20, 2024, Aboveboard invites theatergoers into the bustling streets of New York City, where Nick, a young professional with a penchant for uncovering mysteries, discovers an unexpected twist in his daily routine. He notices food disappearing from his apartment.
Suspicions fall on his best friend, Milo, a magician residing just down the hall. Determined to unravel the truth, Nick sets up surveillance, only to stumble upon a revelation beyond his wildest imagination: a clandestine squatter has taken residence in his home.
As the plot thickens, Aboveboard delves into the complexities of friendship, trust and the unpredictable nature of human relationships. Amidst the chaos, love blossoms, misunderstandings abound, and the power of viral videos takes center stage, catapulting the characters into a whirlwind of unexpected events.
Director Patrick Roth is known for his ability to infuse theatrical productions with depth, authenticity and subtle physical comedy. A graduate of Portland Actors Conservatory, he brings Aboveboard to life with his signature blend of humor and heart.
“We are thrilled to present this fresh, new, wonderful comedy as the inaugural production of our 2024-2025 season,” said Producer Joni Tabler of Sandy Actors Theatre. “With its witty dialogue, charming characters, and captivating storyline, this play promises to captivate audiences of all ages. We invite Sandy Area theater enthusiasts to join us for an unforgettable theatrical experience.”
The cast has not been selected yet, but auditions will be held at SAT in the latter part of June; so anyone interested in auditioning is encouraged to check the SAT website at https://sandyactorstheatre.com, For more information about Sandy Actors Theatre and upcoming productions, please visit the website.
