FULLY COMMITTED, Jesse Tyler Ferguson's hilarious one man comedy, will play its final Broadway performance at the Lyceum Theatre tonight, July 31, 2016. Fully Committed started previews on April 1st, and after an opening on April 25th and an extended run, it will have played 28 previews and 104 performances. BroadwayWorld takes a look back on the show's Broadway run below!

Five-time Emmy Award nominee Jesse Tyler Ferguson makes his highly anticipated return to Broadway as nearly 40 outrageous characters in the smash hit comedy, Fully Committed by Becky Mode, directed by Tony nominee Jason Moore (Avenue Q, Pitch Perfect, Sisters).

You think you're having a bad day? Meet Sam (Ferguson). He works the red-hot reservation line at one of New York's trendiest restaurants, where the best food inspires the worst behavior. Coercion, petty threats, bribes, histrionics-a cast of desperate callers, all brought to life by Ferguson, will stop at nothing to land a prime reservation, or the right table in Becky Mode's hilarious and delicious comedy. Amid the barrage, Sam has his own problems to deal with. While juggling scheming socialites, name-dropping wannabes, fickle celebrities and egomaniacal bosses, can he still manage to look out for himself?

FULLY COMMITTED is based on characters created by playwright Becky Mode and Mark Setlock, from their experience working in the blistering world of the high-end restaurant industry.
