It was a tight production team on this one,
but everyone really came together to make it all happen.

Garrett Tice (Sound OP) was almost a second character in the show. He was responsible for running all of the phones, buzzings, and all of the other sound cues. We almost hit 100 cues for the sound op. This took a lot of rehearsal and time.
The T-shirt we made for the show
The props and set dressing for this show was kept simple and we only used what the play called for. Dominic needed certain things on the desk to help him to stage the actions for each caller he had to handle as Sam. All of the other characters in the play had completely pantomimed actions.
This is a huge challenge for any actor to tackle, and Dominic did an amazing job giving each character a separate voice and physicality.
The story has all kinds of little jokes that get set up and the Chef is the one that drives a lot of the tension. He is a great character in the show and he is a bit over-bearing.
This was the first one man show we have produced in the Theater Department as a full production.
Dominic proved capable the previous year in Advanced Drama when he performed a cutting of the show as a class assignment. That acted as his audition and off we went.
A wonderful Senior year project for any actor. The show would have never happened if Dominic hadn't worked countless hours on his own, with the staging, the blocking, all of the vocal work, and of course the 70+ pages of memorization. It was a huge job to get this script to memory.
GO SEE A PLAY!!!
