AMY SEDARIS

Join Amy Sedaris for a night of sharp observations, unexpected anecdotes, and the delightful absurdity that only she can deliver. Caity Weaver will be hosting the two nights with Amy Sedaris. There will be roughly 50-60 minutes of “conversation” and then an audience Q&A for each night.

A prolific actress, author, comedian, and rabbit educator, Amy Sedaris has appeared in countless television shows and films, including Strangers with Candy, BoJack Horseman, and The Mandalorian.

Albuquerque fans, Amy Sedaris also performs at the KiMo on May 31. Get tickets here.

Sedaris’ Emmy-nominated comedy series, At Home with Amy Sedaris, aired for three seasons on truTV. In this series co-created by Sedaris and Paul Dinello, Amy shows off her diverse but necessary homemaking skills. These skills range from creating popsicle stick buddies and gutting a fish to making raisin necklaces and entertaining businessmen. Each episode revolves around a traditional theme, such as: entertaining, grieving, the craft of love making, and cooking without pots and pans. As always, Sedaris uses her unique expertise to entertain guests, demonstrate her know-how by preparing meals, and exhibiting her can-do spirit by attempting to work out personal issues. The series has featured a cavalcade of guest stars, including Paul Rudd, Rachel Dratch, Jane Krakowski, David Pasquesi, Stephen Colbert, Michael Cera, Justin Theroux, and many more. The show’s first and second season received Primetime Emmy Award nominations in the category of “Outstanding Variety Sketch Series.”

Caity Weaver is a writer for The Atlantic. She was previously a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine and GQ. Her work often sends her tumbling down rabbit holes in pursuit of answers to life's little mysteries, like why the United States continues to mint billions of pennies that no one uses, and how glitter is created. The Atlantic’s editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, has called her “one of the most formidable nonfiction writers of her generation.”
