Yes, there really are "Literary Rock Stars." And Rolling Stone has decreed that David Sedaris is definitely one of them. If you've read Sedaris (Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day), or heard him on NPR or in person, then you know why. If you haven't seen him, then you're in for a treat. The last time this witty, irreverent “literary rock star” was here, people packed the Palace Theatre.
When: Oct 17
Where: Palace Theatre
Time: 8 p.m.
Cost: $46.50-$66.50
