Having recently released his latest book Theft By Finding: Diaries (1977-2002) to critical acclaim and adoring reviews, the masterful writer with a cult following will visit Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane for a series of live performances featuring all-new and unpublished stories and observations, plus audience Q&As and book signings.

His most recent work provides a rare and personal insight into the diary entries of a unique and modern observer, which are a potent reminder that there’s no such thing as a boring day. When you’re as perceptive and curious as Sedaris, adventure waits around every corner.

A regular contributor to The New Yorker, over the course of his career Sedaris has penned the revered books Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice, as well as collections of personal essays including Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames and Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls.

Guaranteed to be bursting with his signature acerbic wit and razor-sharp social critiques, don’t miss your chance to spend an evening with one of the world’s pre-eminent humour writers.

David Sedaris will be at Regal Theatre, Monday January 15th. Tickets and more information available from davidsedaristour.com.au (Tickets on sale from July 21)
