David Sedaris Tickets

Sarcastic and genuinely hilarious. Great for fans and newbies alike

Lovely performance. Very entertaining! I appreciate David Sedaris dedication to book signing before and after the performance!

Amazing evening! It's so refreshing in these times to enjoy an intelligent, thinking humourist who really gets it. What’s actually funny and heart-achingly true to those who take time to think. Tears, lots of laughs and hopes that he never stops writing.

You nod your head in agreement. I don’t get dogs today either. You laugh out loud at the obvious, yet still unexpected. AI will never replace David. You feel the love for his ever dysfunctional family, much like your own. I simply adore David Sedaris. I’d say he was gifted, or brilliant, but I’ve attended enough of his readings to see how hard he works, with his constant revisions. He deserves credit for that, because he’s so much more than his natural abilities.

Sitting in the first row of the balcony, the single stationary performer (we saw Sedaris) is so tiny as to be just a dot on the horizon! Can’t see facial expressions, etc. it would be good for that kind of event to have some kind of screens to see better like at a concert.

So good it was worth sitting in QE’s cramped seats! Arrived early and got books signed. My 15-year-old son was so nervous and David was so kind, even gave him a little pin as a gift. The show was as funny as ever. He really is the best. That AI story was SO good. But my god the Queen Elizabeth needs to remove some chairs so people aren’t squished in with zero arm or leg room.

I’ve heard him twice before in person and read or listened to every single one of his books, including his most recent, Carnival of Snackery. He is a brilliant, clever, sensitive, honest writer who shows his soul both on the page and in between the lines. This performance was interesting, less perfect, but in some ways with all the paper shuffling, wardrobe adjustments and pauses, more genuine. He fit in this one-off Toronto gig because the previous February show had been cancelled (“some places have tighter restrictions” he sardonically? mused) and before he starts a 40 night tour next week. So it was a bit off the cuff, reflective, first-draft and authentically tentative. It was all new material, except a bit at the end, and featured much reflection on the loss of his “ideal character”, father Lou, who died last May. Hence it dealt a lot with aging, death, legacy and grief in a regretful, sad but humorous way as per him. It’s fitting his next book has a Clown theme; the inner honest melancholy of funny man Sedaris is what I thought I glimpsed tonight and why I adore his writing and spoken word so much.

What a welcome post- covid laugh! David and his folder of papers made for a lovely evening of reading stories, diary entries and an interactive Q and A-- 2 hours of solid laughing. We loved it!

This is our second time seeing David Sedaris. He’s funny, hilarious and just amazing. We wouldn’t pass up a chance to see him when he’s in Toronto.

Ran into David on his way to show. Gave him the regular fan spiel and he was genuinely gracious. His reading displayed his funny and clever insights that only David Sedaris sees,
