The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: LOBBY HERO

LOBBY HERO

August 21 – September 5

A SMART & RIVETING TONY AWARD-WINNER

By Kenneth Lonergan
Directed by M. Bevin O’Gara

ABOUT THE PLAY

In the lobby of a Manhattan apartment building, nothing ever happens — until everything does.

When a murder investigation entangles a young security guard, his rule-bound supervisor, and two very different police officers, the lobby becomes a pressure cooker of secrets, loyalties, and shifting truths. As personal feelings collide with professional duty, each must decide: Do you protect your principles, your partner… or yourself?

Jeff, a well-meaning but adrift security guard, gets pulled into the mess when his boss’s troubled brother is arrested. Meanwhile, a rookie cop finds herself forced to challenge her seasoned partner — and question the thin line between justice and convenience.

Smart, funny, and crackling with tension, Lobby Hero is a riveting comedy-drama about moral gray areas, everyday heroism, and the lies we tell — especially to ourselves. From Academy Award winner Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea), this Tony Award–winning play is as gripping as it is human.
