About LOBBY HERO:

Nominated for the Outer Critics Circle Drama Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Play, LOBBY HERO tells the story of a luckless young security guard trying to get his life together after being thrown out of the Navy. But...the lobby proves to be no sanctuary from the world. He is drawn into a local murder investigation and loyalties are strained to the breaking point. As his tightly wound supervisor is called to bear witness and an attractive, rookie policewoman finds she must stand up to her unscrupulous, hero-cop partner, truth becomes elusive and justice proves costly.
