If you're an out of work actor manning the reservation desk at Manhattan's number one restaurant you have to deal with coercion, threats, bribes and histrionics as a cast of desperate would-be diners will stop at nothing to get the right table. One incredibly talented actor (San Diego's Dennis Peters) plays forty wildly diverse characters. Hilarity abounds as good food inspires bad behavior.
Ted Leib, Director of Fully Committed shared “Fully Committed is a wonderfully unhinged 1 person show. Becky Mode's seamless switching between the 40 diverse characters provides both an incredible vehicle for a talented actor embodying all of the roles - as well as a tightly fast-paced piece that I know will hold our audiences' attention!. This is my third time working with the multi-faceted Dennis Peters who takes on ALL of these hysterical characters. His talent, energy, creativity and willingness to play makes him a perfect fit for this piece. I can't wait to share the laughter with our San Diego theatre community.”
Ted Leib (Director, Sound Designer) San Diego directing credits include: She Loves Me, The Fantasticks, Foxfire, and The Dark at the Top of the Stairs, all for SRT; Sweet Charity, Man of La Mancha, Same Time Next Year, Picnic, Boeing Boeing, A Christmas Carol: A Radio Play, and The Musical of Musicals for Oceanside Theatre Company; previously, in Orange County: Pirates of Penzance (STAGES theatre); Bug (Hunger Artists); Bus Stop (Vanguard); Forever Plaid and The 12 Plays of Christmas (Orange County Pavilion). Ted's sound design credits for SRT include last season's Stew and Chapatti for SRT, among many others.
