Humorist David Sedaris’ sardonic tale “The Santaland Diaries” returns to Chicago for its sixth season. Solo actor Mitchell Fain plays the struggling young writer who takes a job as a Christmas elf at Macy’s in New York, trying to enter into the holiday spirit as he is forced to deal with the humiliation of elf training, abusive customers, and badly cast Santas. Fain returns for his second year as the beleaguered elf, a role he first played in 2007.
