Photo Flash: FULLY COMMITTED at American Stage

American Stage Theatre Company continues its "After Hours" series with Becky Mode and Mark Setlock's comedic holiday alternative, FULLY COMMITTED, running Dec. 2 thru Dec. 20. Ticket prices to all performances are "Pay-What-You-Can".

FULLY COMMITTED is a devastatingly funny one-act comedy that follows a day in the life of Sam Peliczowski, an out-of-work actor who mans the red-hot reservation line at Manhattan's number-one restaurant during the holidays. Coercion, threats, bribes, histrionics-a cast of desperate callers will stop at nothing in their zeal to land a prime reservation, or the right table. Amid the barrage, Sam's got his own needs to contend with-his recently widowed dad wants him home for Christmas, and he's up for a choice part at Lincoln Center. While juggling scheming socialites, name-dropping wannabes, fickle celebrities, egomaniacal bosses and the responsibilities of the season, can he manage to look out for himself? A wonderful acting challenge, FULLY COMMITTED has forty wildly diverse characters...all played by Matt Chiorini!

"After as well received as David Sedaris' THE SANTALAND DIARIES was last winter, we are excited to produce the Tampa Bay area premiere of FULLY COMMITTED as the perfect holiday alternative," said Todd Olson, American Stage's producing artistic director. "And, as our gift to our patrons, every performance is Pay-What-You-Can."

Performances and ticket prices are as follows:
Wednesday and Thursday evening curtain is at 9:30 p.m.
Friday and Saturday evening curtain is at 10 p.m.
Saturday and Sunday matinee curtain is at 5 p.m.

Tickets prices are always "Pay What You Can"
