Fully Committed


Fernando, Me, Greg, Brian

Today I was invited to one of the coolest things I have done since I have been in New York. Most people are probably thinking it is skydiving over the Empire State Building or something crazy like that... a little more subdued but definitely very cool. Fernando's friend Greg had some friends in from out of town and wanted to plan a fun night for them. Across the hall from his office is an acting studio...

Needless to say, he ended up with the genius idea to have a private showing of "Fully Committed" - a one man show being done by one of the students. There were probably about 20 people there. Greg set it up nice with some appetizers and a bar. We hung out for about an hour before the show started and chatted.

The show was cool because we were all in our own private little stage with the actor. It really had a personal feel to it - something I have never really had before except when I was in highschool practicing for plays I was in. This was different though, because I was in the audience.

After the show, we had some time to ask questions to the actor and the *director - (I think that was his title but I could be very wrong). It was truly a wonderful experience and I am really grateful to have been invited to participate.

**Thanks Greg!
