Fully Committed
Sunday, July 11, 2010 @ 7:30 PM: Millbrook Playhouse
Sunday, July 11, 2010 @ 2:00 PM: Millbrook Playhouse
Category: Theater
Shows on various dates between July 1-11 in the Caberet. This devastatingly funny one act 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. 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 and egomaniacal bosses, can he manage to look out for himself? A wonderful acting challenge, FULLY COMMITTED has forty wildly diverse characters designed to be played by a single versatile performer.

Triumph Of Love
Sunday, July 11, 2010 @ 2:00 PM: Millbrook Playhouse
Category: Theater
Showing various days July 8-18. Love can make a woman do strange things. Like lie about her past. Or give up her career for the man she loves. Or throw off her princessly raiment and disguise herself as a young man in order to infiltrate the guarded "men-only" palace compound of an exiled prince she's admired from afar, who is secretly plotting to murder her and usurp her throne. Such is the state of things in James Magruder, Jeffrey Stock and Susan Birkenhead's hilarious, tongue-in-cheek, anachronistic adaptation of the classic Marivaux comedy "Triumph Of Love."
