Syracuse Stage presents The Santaland Diaries
For those who like a little jeer with their Christmas cheer, humorist David Sedaris’ The Santaland Diaries is a gem of a lump of coal. Meet Crumpet, a 33-year-old starving artist turned Macy’s elf. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but you wouldn’t know it from the bad Santas, naughty elves, cranky kids and pushy parents who test Crumpet’s last elfin nerve as he struggles to remain sane and perky (!) amid the absurdity of the holiday season. With sardonic wit, and a sometimes razor-sharp, sometimes velvet-soft tongue, Sedaris takes us all playfully to task for plunging into the Christmas spirit but missing the point.
For mature elves only.
No performances on Christmas Day (December 25) or New Years Day (January 1)
