He was last seen on our stage as Jonathan in the hilarious “The Play That Goes Wrong” last fall. You may also recall the time he spent as Cogsworth in last summer’s production of “Beauty and the Beast.” His other previous PALT productions include “Newsies” (Mr. Jacoby), “Grease” (Vince Fontaine and Teen Angel), “Legally Blonde” (Kyle the UPS Guy), “Noir Suspicions” and “Murder at the Cafe Noir” (Rick Archer), “Mary Poppins” (Robertson Aye), “Oliver” (Mr. Sowerberry), “Wizard of Oz” (Tin Man) and “Sound of Music” (Max Detweiler). Andy has also been in a number of productions at Beaumont Community Players over the years, and in 2023 made his debut at Silsbee Little Theatre.
