Photos/Video: Sam Morrison in Broadway-Bound SUGAR DADDY at The Wallis

Sugar Daddy, comedian and actor Sam Morrison’s hilariously funny, unexpectedly moving one-man show, is currently playing the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, CA through October 13, 2024, before coming to Broadway in 2025. Check out a first look at the new production in the photos below!

One summer in the gay paradise of Provincetown, MA., Sam met the sexy silver zaddy of his dreams, igniting a romance for the ages. But in the midst of the pandemic, the love of his life tragically died from COVID. Devastated, Sam realized the only way to cope was through comedy. Done live on stage. In front of thousands of strangers. All around the globe. And to call the show Sugar Daddy.

Join Sam as he shares his wild ride packed with big belly laughs and small tender kisses. Where seagull attacks are more vicious than a New York mugger. Where threesomes and steamy shower sex go head-to-head with Jehovah’s Witnesses. Oh, and where there’s a surprise diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes. Along the way, Sam reminds us that the only thing sweeter than laughter is love.

Morrison is a Los Angeles-based comedian and writer. He was named a New Face at the 2023 Just for Laughs Festival, made his late-night television debut on “Late Night With Seth Meyers,” has performed on “Comedy Central Featuring,” “The Drew Barrymore Show,” “Watch What Happens Live” and “Tamron Hall,” and was a staff writer on Bravo’s “Blind Date.” 

Sugar Daddy was a hit at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and later played a critically acclaimed engagement that was extended three times at Off-Broadway’s SoHo Playhouse, directed by Ryan Cunningham, where it received Outer Critics Circle and Off Broadway Alliance nominations, and was called “the best new show in New York” by Daily Beast. It has since played throughout the United States and in London. 

Scenic design is by Arnulfo Maldonado, lighting design is by Jennifer Schriever, sound design is by Sinan Zafar and video and projection design is by Alex Basco Koch. General management is by DR Theatrical Management.
