Mockingbird Theatre Company finally returns with the Canberra premiere of the hilarious acclaimed one-man show Fully Committed by Becky Mode.
This devastatingly funny play follows a day in the life of Sam, an out-of-work actor who mans the red-hot reservation line at one of Sydney’s top restaurants. 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 Sydney Theatre Company. While juggling scheming socialites, name-dropping wannabes, fickle celebrities and egomaniacal bosses, can he manage to look out for himself?
In an updated version of the Broadway smash, director Zac Bridgman and award-winning comedy chameleon Callum Doherty join forces to serve up a hilarious and fast-paced take on our modern obsession with food.
“…immensely entertaining, a richly comic affirmation of everything I’ve ever heard, or suspected, about the bad behavior that good food can inspire.” —The New York Times
“…hilarious and touching.” —Time Out New York
★★★★★ "Packed from top to bottom with laughs" —State of the Art
