The Santaland Diaries

by David Sedaris
adapted by Joe Mantello
directed by Tony Simotes
featuring Peter Davenport

Elayne P. Bernstein Theatre
December 2 - December 30
2:00 pm / 7:30 pm



Adapted by Joe Mantello from the popular essay that launched David Sedaris into the national spotlight, The Santaland Diaries is a warm and festive little one-man tale that has just the right mix of humor, charm, wit and edge to have everyone rollicking in the aisles. Occasionally subversive, alarmingly clever, engagingly poignant and always side-splittingly funny, this true account of Mr. Sedaris' time spent working as a Christmas elf in Macy's Department Store is well on its way to becoming a modern holiday classic.

Featuring actor Peter Davenport, who was nominated last year for a prestigious IRNE Award as Best Actor in a Musical for his critically lauded performance in the Lyric Stage Company's hit production of Kiss Me, Kate.
