November 17 – December 31, 2017 ATLANTA (September 27, 2017) – After nearly two decades of holiday hilarity, Horizon’s 19th year of The Santaland Diaries will be marked by a passing of the elf hat and booties to a new leading actor! Horizon Theatre announced today that acclaimed local actor, columnist and playwright Topher Payne will take over the role of everyone’s favorite satirical, sarcastic elf, Crumpet, in David Sedaris’ The Santaland Diaries! Actor Harold Leaver, who blossomed into a beloved local celebrity in this iconic role which he has played at Horizon since it first debuted in the 1990s, is hanging up his tights and turning the telling of Sedaris’ now-classic alternative holiday tale. Returning November 17 –December 31 to Horizon Theatre Company, the hilarious holiday sensation is sure to brighten the season. Creative Loafing describes the show as “a hilarious cocktail, serving up a dose of seasonal spirit so potent even the most cynical Scrooge could get tipsy.” This non-traditional, adult-only, Christmas comedy provides the perfect laughter-induced remedy to the holiday hustle and bustle. Jolly and tall, Topher Payne will bring his own Will Ferrell-like presence and caustic wit to the festivities as Crumpet depicts the tale of his stint as a Macy’s Department Store elf.

  • David Sedaris Santaland Diaries Pdf
    David sedaris santaland diaries pdf Continue Macy's SantaLand in Portland, Oregon (2008) Santaland Diaries is an essay by David Sedari. This is a humorous story about Sedaris's work as a Christmas elf in Santaland at Macy's department store. Sedaris first read an essay on the morning edition of National Public Radio on 23 December 1992. The play was well received and secured Sedaria his first major break. Sedaris later published essays in the collections Barrel Fever (1994) and Feasts on Ice (1997). A much longer version of the play first aired on December 20, 1996, on the international program of Public Radio This American Life. In 1996, Joe Mantello adapted Sedaris's essay for the stage as a play of the same name that debuted (as Santaland's Diaries) at the Atlantic Theatre Company in New York on November 7, 1996. The role was born to Timothy Auliffe. The adaptation of Mantello has since become a seasonal staple of regional, college and high school theater. Actual accuracy Although Sedaris argued that the account is true, fact-checking this American life and others as a result of the Mike Dassey Foxconn controversy overshadowed the issue. In 2007, writing for The New Republic, Alexander S. Hurd checked various aspects of Sedari's stories, including The Santaland Diaries, and found that some aspects were exaggerated and manufactured, although Sedaris worked at Macy's during the present period of time. While some defended Sedaris, saying his intention was to entertain rather than provide accurate information, as in the case of Dassey, NPR's executive editor for news programs said that in the future, the story would refer explicitly as fiction.
