For the love of Santa.

Sorry for the lack of posts last week. There was a whole lotta hangover going on.

At Artwalk last week, I caught The Santaland Diaries at MOCA. It's a one-man, one-act play written by David Sedaris, author and brother of the tragically funny Amy Sedaris.

The play runs about 50 minutes, and chronicles Sedaris' short-lived career of Macy's Elf. It's bitter, mean, silly, and fabulous.

If you have ever at any time of your life worked retail, you will love it. If you have never worked retail, but feel empathy for the poor employees who get yelled at for not having a XXXXL miniskirt in yellow, you will like it. If you are the psychotic woman yelling because you want the XXXXL miniksirt in yellow, you will think it's wretched and tasteless.

But when you're trying to locate a 4X miniskirt, tastelessness really is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it?

The Santaland Diaries hosts performances this week on Wednesday (12.13), and next week Tuesday-Thursday (12.19-12.21). Performances are at 7:30. [MOCA]
