EXTENDED by popular demand--Beck Center for the Arts IS Fully Committed
by Julie Gilliland 30 Nov '20

30 Nov '20

EXTENDED by popular demand! Running now through December 6! Fully Committed is Fully Virtual Beck Center for the Arts' First Video on Demand Professional Theater Production Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org> EXTENDS its first virtual production, Fully Committed! Running now until December 6, 2020, patrons are invited to enjoy this virtual production in the comfort of their homes for $20 for an individual viewer, $30 for two or more viewers, or $40 for two or more viewers who would like to provide additional support. Fully Committed, by Becky Mode, is a hilarious one-person comedy. Ideally suited for a virtual production, this theater piece solves the issue of how to keep a performer, director, crew, and the audience safe during a pandemic, all the while delivering great laughs. Beck Center understands the desire for comedic entertainment and is proud to deliver this witty and funny experience. For the safety of everyone, this production will be filmed and distributed online. Scott Spence, now in his 30th season as artistic director of Beck Center for the Arts, directs. The tour-de-force comedy is performed by the very talented Nick Koesters, who was a mainstay on Beck Center's stages for many years, and has been a member of Virginia's Barter Theatre<https://bartertheatre.com/> for the past eight seasons. Some of Nick's memorable shows at Beck Center include "Greater Tuna," "Is He Dead?," "Hair" and "MacBeth." Mr. Koesters is a member of Actor's Equity Association. Koesters plays Sam Peliczowski, an out-of-work actor who runs the red-hot reservation line at Manhattan's highest reviewed restaurant. Coercion, threats, bribes, and histrionics pour forth from a cadre of desperate callers who will stop at nothing to land a prime reservation at the right table to impress their party. Amid the barrage of calls, Sam copes with his recently widowed father who's pressing him to come home for Christmas, as well as being up for a choice role in a play at Lincoln Center. Sam juggles scheming socialites, name-droppers, fickle celebrities, and egomaniacal bosses. Can he manage his own life right now? In all, this single performer brings to life over 40 characters. The New York Times calls Fully Committed "immensely entertaining, a richly comic affirmation of everything I've ever heard, or suspected, about the bad behavior that good food can inspire." This limited engagement of Fully Committed runs until December 6 on any device in the comfort of your home, as part of Beck Center's 87th Professional Theater Season. Tickets are now on sale<https://www.showtix4u.com/event-details/42252> for the run of the production. Beck Center is located at 17801 Detroit Avenue<https://maps.google.com/?q=17801+Detroit+Avenue&entry=gmail&source=g> in Lakewood. For more information please visit beckcenter.org<http://www.beckcenter.org/>. This virtual production of Fully Committed is presented through special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service. Programming at Beck Center for the Arts is made possible through the generous support of the Ohio Arts Council. Beck Center gratefully acknowledges the generous funding provided by the citizens of Cuyahoga County through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. Beck Center for the Arts is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization that offers professional theater productions on two stages, arts education programming in dance, music, theater, visual arts, early childhood, creative arts therapies for individuals with disabilities, free gallery exhibits year-round, and outreach education programming. ###
