The Agenda

Sedaris, a renowned author and humorist, onstage at 2 PM sharp for one day only, will present a strikingly personal and uniquely humorous performance, buoyed by the success of his most recent book releases, “A Carnival of Snackery” and “Pretty Ugly”. Attendees will enjoy a selection of all-new readings and reminiscences, a comprehensive Q&A session followed by a book-signing spectacle. Sedaris will be offering his books for sale at the event as well, courtesy of Blue Bicycle Books.

Noted Contribution

Sedaris, known for his bestsellers such as “Calypso”, “Naked”, “Me Talk Pretty One Day”, and “Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim”, besides being a regular contributor to the National Public Radio, has amassed a strong following owing to his keen social observations screened through his distinctive brand of sardonic wit. His ability to slice through cultural euphemisms and the veneer of political correctness has secured his position as a master of satirical writing. His viewpoints on the human condition, vibrant and stark, make him one of the most valued contributors to American literature and humor today.
