A lot of laughter
by shelz on 2017-10-29Sony Centre For The Performing Arts - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5I cannot lie, with the exception of one Christmas story (which my husband plays the audio recording every year), I was mostly unfamiliar with David Sedaris' work and had no idea what to expect. Well I can easily say I laughed a LOT! It was a simple show, one man, a podium, and excerpts from his books and diaries, but such a fantastic storyteller. There is a lot of swearing and what some might consider almost vulgar detail, but somehow David Sedaris manages to pull it off in a way that's not only humourous but almost eloquent in its delivery. The only downside to this show was entirely to blame on the venue. The Sony Centre is a lovely facility but the volume was SO low! I have exceptional hearing but struggled throughout the entire show. David Sedaris is a rather soft spoken performer and I had higher expectations of the venue.
