Jesse Tyler Ferguson as 40 Characters Vying for the Perfect Table in 'Fully Committed'

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 13, 2016

Five-time Emmy Award nominee Jesse Tyler Ferguson may be best known for his role as Mitchell on "Modern Family," but he's also on Broadway starring as nearly 40 characters in the comedy, "Fully Committed," written by Becky Mode, directed by Tony nominee Jason Moore. Ferguson plays Sam, who works the reservation line at one of New York’s trendiest restaurants. He brings the desperate callers to life - and each one will stop at nothing to get a table. 

"Fully Committed" runs through July 24th at the Lyceum Theatre (149 W 45th Street). For tickets and more information, visit the show's website.
