David Sedaris, the best-selling American author and humourist is returning Down Under to host a series of live shows in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane in January 2018.

After previous sold out tours, Sedaris is hitting the Aussie road for his fourth sojourn, following the recent release of his latest book the Theft By Finding”: Diaries (1977 – 2002). Audiences will be entertained with the masterful writer’s series of live performances featuring all-new and unpublished stories and observations, plus audience Q&As and book signings.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.
