David Sedaris’ The Santaland Diaries tells the story of Crumpet the Elf (Daniel Fleischer) and his experience working in a Macy’s Christmas Santaland. Directed by Nathan Carpenter, The Santaland Diaries is a one-man show commenting on the materialistic aspect of the beloved holiday season in an ironic, dry, “Bah! humbug” fashion.
