The Santaland Diaries by David Sedaris
Crumpet the Elf and Mrs. Jocelyn Dunbar return once again as New Edgecliff Theatre (NET) presents its annual holiday offering, David Sedaris' "The Santaland Diaries".
Adapted by Joe Mantello, the first act chronicles the real-life observations of renowned NPR contributor and memoirist Sedaris as he encounters crazed Santas, obnoxious parents, and queasy children while working his first New York job - as one of Santa's Elves in the very nexus of commercial Christmas and Holiday Cheer, Macy's Santaland.
Act II presents "Season's Greetings", wherein Mrs. Jocelyn Dunbar delivers a horrifying yet witheringly funny holiday letter from the dark side of the suburban mindscape. Desperate to hang onto her traditions, this slightly-too-cheery homemaker reveals to her family and friends some rather disturbing details of her past year.
New Edgecliff Artistic Director Greg Procaccino says, "We know there are lots of people out there looking for not-so-average holiday entertainment. We hope they'll join us for 'The Santaland Diaries' - it truly is the holiday play for the rest of us."
