Santaland Diaries

By David Sedaris

Noted humorist David Sedaris first came to prominence on NPR with his wickedly funny story of playing Crumpet the Elf in the holiday extravaganza known as “SantaLand” at Macy’s. Now adapted into a play by Joe Mantello, The Santaland Diaries has become a new, if subversive, Christmas classic with its backstage expose of that seamy underbelly of Christmas known as “Elf School.” Leave the young ones at home with a sitter and a Rudolph DVD, and join GTC for an alternative tradition of Christmas crimes and misdemeanors.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
