Casa Manana Welcomes the Holidays with THE SANTALAND DIARIES
By: Julie Musbach Oct. 24, 2018
Casa Mañana's Reid Cabaret Theatre presents Santaland Diaries starring Zak Reynolds. Tickets are on sale now.
Santaland Diaries is a sardonic, irreverent holiday tale of Crumpet, the grumpiest elf at Macy's in New York at Christmastime. What began as a way for an out-of-work writer to pay the bills, quickly becomes an absurd and hilarious quest through the trials and tribulations of a middle-aged elf dealing with cynical Santas, greedy children and their harried parents. Adapted by Joe Mantello from humorist David Sedaris' essay, this acclaimed, one-man's sharp-witted retelling of his holiday debauchery will be held in the Reid Cabaret Theatre. This show is suitable for those who prefer their eggnog spiked (mature audiences).
DFW metroplex favorite, Zak Reynolds, stars as Crumpet. His credits include The Snowy Day and Other Stories (Denver Center for the Performing Arts), Bella: An American Tall Tale (Dallas Theater Center), Dogfight (WaterTower Theatre), Newsies (Lyric Stage) and several seasons at Casa.
