David Sedaris: Live Nation

Known for his acidic humor, sharp-witted verbal elegance, and sardonically incisive social critiques, this beloved satirist made his comic debut on NPR’s Morning Edition recounting his strange-but-true experiences as a Macy’s elf clad in green tights, later recorded in his essay “Santaland Diaries.” Sedaris tonight recounts stories from his life and reads from his upcoming autobiographical book, The Land and Its People, scheduled for May release. 8 p.m., Michigan Theater. Tickets $79–$245 in advance at (800) 745–3000, ticketmaster.com, & (if available) at the door.
