Fully Committed at Contra Costa Civic Theatre

Welcome to the life of the "reservationist" at the unnamed, booked-months-in-advance Upper East Side restaurant in Fully Committed, a play about the harried reservation clerk at New York's hottest five-star restaurant and the hordes of people who make his job impossible. Forty characters appear in this comic masterpiece - ONE actor singlehandedly brings all 40 to life in a comic tour de' force.

It's a comedy like no other you've seen.

No one who has ever dined out (or who has ever held a restaurant job) should miss this show. The NY Times called it "an immensely entertaining, scaldingly funny play about the bad behavior that good food can inspire".

Foreign dignitaries, local political personalities, supermodels, little old ladies, Hollywood producers, Mafia figures - all will stop at nothing to book a table. Making matters even worse for the poor reservation clerk is the restaurant's high-strung maitre d' and its egomaniacal chef.
