  • An Evening with David Sedaris
    MEDIA RELEASE Monday 10 August SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE presents AN EVENING WITH DAVID SEDARIS “Sedaris’s droll assessment of the mundane and the eccentrics who inhabit the world’s crevices make him one of the greatest humorists writing today.” – Chicago Tribune “Sedaris ain’t the preeminent humorist of his generation by accident.” – Entertainment Weekly “He’s smart, he’s caustic, he’s mordant, and, somehow, he’s…well, nice.” – Toronto Globe and Mail NPR humourist and bestselling author David Sedaris returns to the Sydney Opera House in January 2016 as part of a much anticipated third tour down under. An Evening with David Sedaris sees audiences treated to Sedaris reading from a selection of his new and unpublished essays and diary entries, which he writes in daily. Having been nominated for three Grammy Awards for Best Spoken Word and Best Comedy Album, an evening with Sedaris is always a special and memorable event. It’s thanks to his trademark sardonic wit and incisive social critiques that Sedaris has become one of America’s preeminent humour writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness has earned him a reputation as a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. Fans of Sedaris will know him as the author of multiple best-selling books including Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames and his most recent book, Let’s Explore Diabetes With Owls.

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: Me Talk Pretty One Day ME TALK PRETTY ONE DAY
    david sedaris: Me talk pretty one day ME TALK PRETTY ONE DAY ANYONE WHO WATCHES EVEN THE SLIGHTEST amount of TV is familiar with the scene: An agent knocks on the door of some seemingly ordinary home or office. The door opens, and the person holding the knob is asked to identify himself. The agent then says, "I'm going to ask you to come with me." They're always remarkably calm, these agents. If asked "Why do I need to go anywhere with you?" they'll straighten their shirt cuffs or idly brush stray hairs from the sleeves of their sport coats and say, "Oh, I think we both know why." The suspect then chooses between doing things the hard way and doing things the easy way, and the scene ends with either gunfire or the gentlemanly application of handcuffs. Occasionally it's a case of mistaken identity, but most often the suspect knows exactly why he's being taken. It seems he's been expecting this to happen. The anticipation has ruled his life, and now, finally, the wait is over. You're sometimes led to believe that this person is actually relieved, but I've never bought it. Though it probably has its moments, the average day spent in hiding is bound to beat the average day spent in prison. When it comes time to decide who gets the bottom bunk, I think anyone would agree that there's a lot to be said for doing things the hard way. The agent came for me during a geography lesson.

  • This American Life's Ira Glass on Being Wrong.” 7 June 2010
    Splendor in the Glass: The Pleasure of This American Life’s America Jessie Taylor Senior Seminar Laura McGrane Haverford College English Department 2011 Taylor 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost I would like to thank my primary reader Laura McGrane, whose discerning eye was indispensable to the development of my thesis. Professionally and personally, her exceptional understanding consistently inspires my work. I would also like to recognize two other English professors who have been instrumental to my evolution as an English major, Kim Benston and Theresa Tensuan. Kim Benston I thank for his linguistic rigor. His classes open literary exploration to provocative realms of philosophical inquiry, and his diligent attention to language reminds me not only of the necessity for detailed analysis but also of the importance of scrutiny within my own writing. Theresa Tensuan I thank for her ceaseless encouragement of my own critical voice, even when it is proven to be an unpopular perspective. Her classes have revealed to me the inexhaustible potential for literary criticism in interpretation as well as in form. Additionally, I owe endless gratitude to Norm Medeiros and Mary Lynn Morris Kennedy whose continual support has been invaluable to my time at Haverford College. Taylor 1 Bambi Schlomovich writes a weekly column on Jewcy.com called “The Ira Glass Infatuation Post/This American Life Roundup,” which gives an overview of each week’s This American Life episode in thoroughly erotic terms. One post opens, “You’ve tapped into another epicenter of pleasure for me this week, Ira….”1 For another episode, she claims, “this week’s installment ‘True Urban Legends’ was especially arousing.

  • The Santaland Diaries David Sedaris’ Witty Gem of a Lump of Coal
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, November 17, 2008 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, PR Director 315-443-2636 or [email protected] The Santaland Diaries David Sedaris’ Witty Gem of a Lump of Coal By David Sedaris Adapted for the stage by Joe Mantello Directed by Wendy Knox STORCH THEATRE at SYRACUSE STAGE Previews: December 2-4 Open: December 5 Close: January 4 (SYRACUSE, NY)—Based on essays by David Sedaris, this scathingly humorous story recounts Sedaris’ brief employment as Crumpet, an out-of-work-actor-turned-elf working in Macy’s Santaland. In an act of desperation, an unemployed writer finds himself trading in his dignity for red and white striped tights and a paycheck, while wittily revealing the true nature of the beast formerly known as Christmas. For mature elves only (mature middle school and up). Tickets are available at the Syracuse Stage Box Office at 820 East Genesee Street, by telephone at 315-443-3275 or SyracuseStage.org. Running December 2 to January 4, the exclusive sponsor for The Santaland Diaries is Phoebe’s Restaurant & Coffee Lounge. Media sponsors are the Syracuse New Times and WAER 88.3. Syracuse Stage season sponsors are The Post-Standard and Time Warner Cable. 1 “This production is a great alternative holiday offering that breaks from tradition,” said Director Wendy Knox, Artistic Director and Founder of Frank Theatre. A huge Sedaris fan herself, Knox continued: “Sedaris’ wry and offbeat sense of humor will delight the audience and keep them captivated from beginning to end.” “Our approach will focus on the darker side of retail and consumerism,” said Scenic and Costume Designer Jessica Ford.

  • 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.
