Lobby Hero, Starring Chris Evans & Michael Cera, Opens on Broadway

The first Broadway production of Kenneth Lonergan’s 2001 play Lobby Hero officially opens on March 26. Starring Chris Evans and Michael Cera, Lobby Hero is the first Broadway show at the historic Hayes Theater under the new ownership of the nonprofit Second Stage. Trip Cullman directs the production, which began previews on March 1. Brian Tyree Henry and Bel Powley also star.

Lobby Hero centers on a young security guard (Cera) with big ambitions who clashes with his stern boss (Henry), an intense rookie cop (Powley) and her unpredictable partner (Evans).

To celebrate the play's Broadway premiere, Broadway.com Resident Artist Justin "Squigs" Robertson sketched a portrait of the talent-packed four-person cast offering a fresh take on Lonergan's acclaimed work.



About the Artist: With a desire to celebrate the magic of live theater and those who create it, and with a deep reverence for such touchstones as the work of Al Hirschfeld and the wall at Sardi’s, Squigs is happy and grateful to be among those carrying on the traditions where theater and caricature meet. He was born and raised in Oregon, lived in Los Angeles for quite a long time and now calls New York City his home.
