Holiday hallmark
The Santaland Diaries is based on National Public Radio funnyman David Sedaris’ story of the same name. The comedic, one-act play recounts the experiences of a struggling writer, working as an elf in a Macy’s Santaland. The touching-by-way-of-sardonic tale (a Sedaris hallmark) inspects the holiday season—down to every last scrap of tinsel—from a peculiar inside perspective, and holds a hilarious light to the best, and the worst, inside us all.
Through 12/16 $12, 7:30pm. Blackfriars Playhouse, 10 S. Market St., Staunton. (540)-885-5588.
