SAVANNAH, Ga. () — Get ready to laugh, sing, and tap your feet as the Savannah College of Art and Design’s (SCAD) School of Film and Acting presents The Drowsy Chaperone, a musical-within-a-musical that brings the glitz and glamour of 1920s Broadway to life. The show runs from May 22 through 25 at Savannah’s historic Lucas Theatre for the Arts.

This Tony Award-winning comedy follows a lonely theater enthusiast—known only as “Man in Chair”—who escapes into the world of his favorite forgotten musical. As he plays the original cast recording, the show bursts into life in his apartment, complete with mistaken identities, tap-dancing groomsmen, and a delightfully tipsy chaperone.

The production brings together the work of more than 60 students across top-ranked degree programs including acting, production design, costume design, lighting design, music and sound design.

“This show has everything for everyone of all ages,” said director and SCAD acting director Christian Delcroix. “There’s comedy, entertainment, lots of surprise elements, and one show-stopping song and dance number after another. These student actors are incredibly talented and they will blow audiences away with their spectacular performances.”

Delcroix performed on Broadway for over a decade before coming to teach at SCAD, appearing in shows like South Pacific, Follies, and The Book of Mormon. He is joined by other Broadway veterans who are mentoring The Drowsy Chaperon student cast. The musical is choreographed by Broadway actress/SCAD acting professor Margot de La Barre, and music directed by Broadway music director Jasper Grant. Originally written by Bob

“This is SCAD’s latest act of bringing Broadway to Broughton Street!” said Andra Reeve-Rabb, the dean of the School of Film and Acting. “With our team of creatives made up of talented students and Broadway veterans, we are thrilled to bring this musical favorite to the historic Lucas Theatre.”
