It's time for Santa!

We're a week into rehearsals for Santaland Diaries, an outrageous comedy by David Sedaris. In addition to working for hours every day in rehearsals, I'm building something that will pass (I hope) for the over-the-top world of Macy's "Santaland." First thing was to get some really big lumber . . .

and then get it shaped into something . . .

that will pass for an exaggerated Santa Throne.

Here's Jonathan in rehearsal playing around with the slacker elf in Santaland. This weekend, we're taking time off from rehearsing, Jonathan is playing with friends in Boston and I'm going to get this sucker tricked out in yuletide cheer. Christmas trees, lots of little lights, garlands and artificial snow!

Opening night is December 2nd - it's gonna be fun.
