Evening performances of “Lobby Hero” will be on April 12, 13, 19, 20, 25, 26 and 27. Matinees are on April 14, 21 and 27. Additional dates may be added within this range.

The New York Times called “Lobby Hero” the best American drama of the first half of this century; it tells the story of Jeff, the luckless security guard drawn into a local murder investigation involving his superior and an overzealous young policewoman. “Lobby Hero” is about fateful, revealing decisions, and how they often emerge from conflicting motivations.

Nutley Little Theatre stages its productions at the NLT Barn, 47 Erie Place, Nutley, located off Brookfield Avenue (one block east of Franklin Avenue) in the heart of the Erie Place Historic District. For directions, please see www.nutleylittletheatre.com.
