# Event Details

- **Event Name**: New Bedford MA An Evening with David Sedaris
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 03 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: America’s best-selling humorist and social satirist returns!

David Sedaris is a master of satire and one of today’s most observant writers. In his customary sartorial and humorous manner, he will make you laugh and think in equal measures, with all new, unpublished stories and commentary. As always, the reading will be accompanied by a pre- and post-showbook signing.

In The Land and It's People, his first new collection since Happy-go-lucky, Sedaris reflects on what it means to be a foreigner, a brother, a lifelong friend. He tries on the role of caretaker after his boyfriend Hugh’s hip-replacement surgery, and both succeeds and fails. He buys his sister a cape and discusses his brother with a jaded Duolingo bot. He walks dozens of miles with his friend Dawn and challenges her to eat a truck tire. Ever adding to his list of “Countries I Have Been To,” he rides a horse named Tequila in Guatemala, buys a bespoke priest’s cassock in Vatican City, and goes on safari in Kenya without taking a single photo.

Throughout these essays—at once acerbic and tender, playful and profound—Sedaris shows how much there is to marvel at when you keep your head up and your eyes open, observing with warmth and curiosity this fascinating human species and the lands we inhabit.

Sedaris is the bestselling author of the books Calypso, Theft By Finding, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Holidays on Ice, Naked, and Barrel Fever. He is a regular contributor to The New Yorker and BBC Radio 4.

Sedaris will deliver a 60-minute reading followed by 20-30 minutes of audience questions and no intermission. Photography and video recording of any kind is strictly prohibited.
