STAGED READING SERIES:
LOBBY HERO

Lobby Hero first premiered off-Broadway in 2001. It was recently revived on Broadway and was nominated for a Tony for Best Revival, the Drama League Awards and Drama Desk Awards. The story of Jeff, a newly-hired security guard, and the moral dilemma in which he finds himself with an unscrupulous cop, is full of humor but asks big questions at the same time. According to the New York Times, “As to the ethical quandaries and quagmires in which these people are mired, they feel even more pointedly and sadly relevant than they did when Lobby Hero was first performed….Mr. Lonergan doesn’t work in bold blacks and whites, but in compelling shades of gray.”
