Santaland Diaries Coming to Theatre in the Park

Raleigh won’t be getting David Sedaris live anytime soon, like Durham will be in April, so we’ll just have to live with his Santaland Diaries, performed on stage at the Theatre in the Park for one weekend only.

If you haven’t read Holidays on Ice, by local comedian/writer David Sedaris, pick a copy for you and you’ll be able to zoom through it in a day or two. The Santaland Diaries, which is a collection of stories about the days Sedaris worked as an elf in the NYC Macy’s store, is the main attraction of the book. It also makes a fabulous holiday gift, on ice.

Listen to some of Santaland Diaries on NPR.

Automatic Vaudeville returns with its hilarious Christmas comedy, The Santaland Diaries by David Sedaris, for one weekend only!  This year, Automatic Vaudeville has been fortunate enough to partner with one of the Triangle’s leading producers of Christmas cheer, Theatre In The Park.  The production will run December 11-14, 2008 at the Ira David Wood III Pullen Park Theatre.
