Answer
Remove the event.preventDefault();
from your handler, it stops the form submission which is the default behavior for forms.
JavaScript
$( 'form[role=search] input, form[role=search] button' ).on( 'focus, click', function( event ) {
// Display the Full Screen Search
$( '#full-screen-search' ).addClass( 'open' );
// Focus on the Full Screen Search Input Field
$( '#full-screen-search input' ).focus();
} );
