NY- SF(Washington DC) - LA - BOSTON - LAGUNA BEACH

One of Time Magazine's Ten "Best Theatre 2000" 
"FULLY COMMITTED A frazzled afternoon with the reservations clerk for a hot-hot-hot Manhattan restaurant. Becky Mode's one-actor play (a hit off-Broadway and now in L.A.) is a tart and hilarious send-up of the social feeding frenzy." - Time Magazine

They're tough... they're famous... they're desperate... they're an unforgettable collection of people trying to book a reservation in NY’s trendiest restaurant... and one out of work actor must deal with them all.

It’s a comedy.

And the critics said …

"A SPARKLING TOUR DE FORCE! Such is the force of Mark Setlock’s impersonations and the vividness of the writing that a whole world is summoned up. This makes for a delightful collaboration between the artists and the audience’s imaginations. Director Nicholas Martin and Setlock fill the stage with motion, energy and life. A DELICIOUS COMEDY! A COMIC EPIC!"
-Donald Lyons, N.Y. Post

"DELICIOUS! A DELIGHT! Rarely has a playwright pegged so entertainingly the insecurity at the heart of the New York sense of entitlement. VERY FUNNY!"
-Peter Marks, N.Y. Times

"A TORNADO! THE AUDIENCE IS IN STITCHES FROM BEGINNING TO END!"
- David Kaufman, N.Y. Daily News

FULLY COMMITTED, a solo tour de force written by Becky Mode, is the "single most gratifying find in the current off-Broadway crop of shows," according to San Francisco Chronicle theatre critic Steven Winn. Low priced previews begin June 8, 2000 with a June 20th opening. Tickets are now available by calling 415-433-9500. FULLY COMMITTED is a comic tale about the harried reservation clerk at New York's hottest four-star restaurant and the hordes of people who make his job impossible: from the foreign dignitaries, local political personalities, supermodels, little old ladies, Hollywood producers, Mafia figures, et. al. who stop at nothing to book a table, to the restaurant's high-strung maitre d' and its egomaniacal chef. And, brilliantly, the actor (Ethan Sandler) performs all the roles singlehandedly. No one who has ever dined out or who has ever held a restaurant job should miss this show! "This is an immensely entertaining, scaldingly funny play about the bad behavior that good food can inspire" The New York Times " Has the audience in stitches from beginning to end" New York Daily News "Delicious" Entertainment Weekly "Hilarious" The New Yorker "A laugh-out-loud pleasure" Time Out "A dazzling theatrical sprint! In a culture where dinner and status mingle into some new religion. ``Fully Committed'' is its hilarious, high-speed hymn." - Steven Winn, San Francisco Chronicle CLOSED OCTOBER 22ND, but reopens for a limited run at the Ford Theatre in Washington D.C.
