Theater Preview: Lobby Hero at the Pgh Public Theater

The Public's 30th season celebration concludes with Lobby Hero, from Academy Award-nominated screenwriter (You Can Count on Me) Kenneth Lonergan. Acclaimed for his sharp and honest writing (This is our Youth), Lonergan sets this viciously funny, modern morality tale in a Manhattan high-rise lobby where a lousy security guard, his officious supervisor, and two of "New York's finest" discover the damage caused by doing the wrong thing for the right reasons.

"Lobby Hero is not only the best drama this year; it's the best comedy, the best romance, the best character study and the best issue play all rolled into one." - Time Out New York

This show is performed with one 15 minute intermission and contains adult language.
