Yes, him talk pretty one night.
The Virginia has brought some pretty entertaining people to C-U in the recent past (Kathy Griffin, Mike Birbiglia), and it would appear that the streak will continue with a visit from David Sedaris. So, for those of you thinking ahead to life Post-Ebertfest, this might be an option.
From a Virginia Theatre post (with editorial italics):
With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, David Sedaris has become one of America’s preeminent humor writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms & political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. David Sedaris is the author of the collections of personal essays Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, and Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary, all of which have become bestsellers. His pieces appear regularly in The New Yorker and have twice been included in The Best American Essays. His latest book, entitled Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls, was just released in paperback June 2014.
David Sedaris will appear for one night only, featuring all-new readings of his work and a book signing following the event.

A note to the fine folks at The Virginia: Marc Maron. Would it kill ya?
