Grappling with the death of his partner from COVID-19 in 2021, Sam Morrison transforms his grief into humor. Masterfully toeing the line between comedy and tragedy, he takes the audience on a journey of love, loss, diabetes, seagull attacks and a few extraordinary coincidences. After meeting his partner Jonathan at the infamous “Bear Week” in Provincetown, the two fell in love quarantining together at his grandmother’s house before Jonathan’s tragic passing. Soon after, Sam found a coping mechanism in an unexpected place: comedy. Sugar Daddy is a revolutionary hour of comedy that follows in the footsteps of stand up solo artists, but expands on what comedy can be - a brutally honest and truly hilarious exploration of tragedy and triumph. Ultimately, this is an uplifting hour that is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and our ability to find light in darkness. Sugar Daddy returns to Soho Playhouse after an acclaimed engagement earlier this winter.
