2011 Edinburgh Fringe

David Sedaris is one of America's pre-eminent humour writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and is one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. 'Sedaris's droll assessment of the mundane and the eccentrics who inhabit the world's crevices make him one of the greatest humorists writing today' (Chicago Tribune), 'Sedaris belongs on any list of people writing in English at the moment who are revising our ideas about what's funny' (San Francisco Chronicle).
