Shattered Globe Artistic Producer Nate Santana will direct Kenneth Lonergan’s 2001 comedic masterpiece, Lobby Hero. Time Out New York called it “A masterpiece. The best drama, the best comedy, and the best romance of the year, all rolled into one.” 

Lobby Hero is set during the graveyard shift at a mid-rise apartment foyer in Manhattan. A rudderless security guard, his demanding supervisor, a rookie cop, and her self-centered partner are forced to navigate whether doing the wrong thing for the right reason can ever be justified. As Ben Brantley of The New York Times wrote, “motives come in every shade but black and white” in Lobby Hero, creating a “combustible brew of impulses.” 

Charm, romance, and humor abound in this darkly comedic drama by Lonergan, the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Manchester by the Sea. Performances of Lobby Hero are January 24 – March 1, 2025.
