Western Gold Theatre presents Sandsprite, a touching comedy by North Vancouver–based playwright Peter Zednik, in its mainstage debut from November 12 to 29. The production runs at the PAL Studio Theatre, with showtimes at 2 pm and 7:30 pm depending on the day.
Sandsprite is about coming out of the closet at any age—and at any cost. When teenage lovers Brogan and Si meet again after 50 years, ancient truths unfold, triggering high camp, low blows, love bites, and bitter tears. Ultimately, the pair must decide whether their vastly different lives can intersect with a happy ending. Both deeply moving and resoundingly funny, Sandsprite, at its heart, celebrates love.
The play had its first public reading at Western Gold Theatre’s 2025 Have a Senior Moment Festival. Now, directed by Christopher Lam, this fully staged production stars beloved Vancouver actors Allan Morgan, Adam Henderson, and Alek Toledo-Cisak.
Zednik is a multi-award-winning playwright as well as a director, author, and theatre administrator. Over the course of his 25-year career in theatre, his much-lauded scripts have been produced across Canada and internationally.
Tickets to Sandsprite are available through Western Gold Theatre.
