PlayhouseSquare Welcomes David Sedaris, 10/12
by BWW News Desk - October 12, 2010
David Sedaris may well be the closest thing the literary world has these days to a rock star-his speaking engagements are now consistently standing-room-only, a far cry from his early days as a housecleaner in New York City. Sedaris made his comic debut recounting his strange-but-true experiences of his job as a Macy's elf clad in green tights, reading his 'SantaLand Diaries' on National Public Radio's Morning Edition. His sardonic wit and incisive social critique have since made him one of America's pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which Sedaris slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that he is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today.
