Savoy Company

Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Savoy Company has performed at the spacious Academy of Music (since 1926, where it is the oldest tenant) and Longwood Gardens, where it was invited by founder Pierre S. du Pont.

[1] In 1918, members of the company established the Alfred Reginald Allen Scholarship Fund for the benefit of the Music Department of the University of Pennsylvania.

Staging rehearsals are held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at various social club venues throughout the Philadelphia area.

The Travelling Troupe has also performed for special celebrations, such as Victorian Day in Cape May, New Jersey and the Radnor Hunt Three-Day event.

In 1999, Savoy also helped the Blue Hill Troupe in New York City to celebrate its 75th anniversary with a performance at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The Savoy season culminates with the traditional June Fatal, a formal black-tie dinner held in mid-June.
