THE SANTALAND DIARIES at Horizon Theatre Returns with New Crumpet!

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 Company 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, 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.
