UPCOMING: David Sedaris, Fisher Theatre, Detroit, April 8

UPCOMING: David Sedaris at the Fisher Theatre, Detroit, on April 8th
*Disclosure: I have been given tickets to the show in exchange for this post. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own.

I have seen David Sedaris live in person maybe four to five times now: the first few were at Hill Auditorium, in Ann Arbor (on UM's campus), and I've seen him twice at the Fisher Theatre. His readings, just like his work, are very entertaining, and it's always great to meet him after the show to get one of his books signed. 

He'll be at the Fisher Theatre next month, on April 8th - read below for more info!

About the reading:

David Sedaris, author of the previous bestsellers Calypso, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, and regular National Public Radio contributor will be appearing for one night only at the Fisher Theatre on April 8, 2025 at 7:30 p.m. following the release of his newest books, Happy Go Lucky and Pretty Ugly. Tickets go on sale Friday, December 6 and will be available online at BroadwayInDetroit.com at 10:00 a.m.

This is a unique opportunity to see the best-selling humorist in an intimate setting. As always, Sedaris will be offering a selection of all-new readings and recollections, as well as a Q&A session and book signing. Books will be available for sale at the event, courtesy of Wayne State University Bookstore.

With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, Mr. Sedaris has become one of America’s pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. 

If you love David Sedaris’s cheerfully misanthropic stories, you might think you know what you’re getting into at his live readings. You’d be wrong.  To see him read his own work on stage allows his autobiographical narrative to reveal a uniquely personal narrative that will keep you laughing throughout the evening.  Don’t miss this event!

David Sedaris is coming to the Fisher Theatre Tuesday, April 8, 2025 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at $63.50 (includes parking & facility fee) and will go on sale Friday, December 6. Tickets are now available online at BroadwayInDetroit.com. 

For group sales (10 or more) please email broadwayindetroitgroups@atgentertainment.com or call 313-871-1132.


Will you be attending, and/or have you seen David Sedaris live before?

Review: Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.

Trip Review: Bavarian Inn Lodge, Frankenmuth, MI

*Disclosure: I received a free one-night stay at Bavarian Inn Lodge in exchange for this review. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. This past Friday, I had the pleasure of staying at the Bavarian Inn Lodge , in Frankenmuth, Michigan, for one night. I've been to Frankenmuth many times, and even stayed overnight in the neighboring Birch Run, but I had never stayed directly in the city before, so I was excited to stay at the Lodge. Friday was a rainy day, but we didn't let that stop us from having fun. We stopped at Halo Burger, in Birch Run, for lunch—there used to be locations in Novi and Troy, but both closed, and their food is very good—and then hit up Bronner's Christmas Wonderland, which is the largest Christmas store in the world.  For those who are unfamiliar with Frankenmuth , it is a German/Bavaria-themed town, about an hour north of the Metro Detroit area, nicknamed "Michigan's Little Bavaria." There is always a lot of things to do in Fr...
