Elf Love

"I am a thirty-three-year-old man applying for a job as an elf."

The Santaland Diaries is an outrageously funny one-man play (from National Public Radio’s well-loved humorist David Sedaris) about the author’s experiences as an unemployed actor/writer taking a job as an elf at Macy’s department store in New York City. This delightfully tart tale takes a wry look at how the holiday season brings out the best – and the worst – in us all. After playing Don Pedro and Master Page in the summer and fall, John Harrell returns to star as Crumpet the Elf.
