‘Lobby Hero’ review: Chris Evans and Michael Cera shine on Broadway

A review of Lobby Hero by Joe Dziemianowicz | March 26, 2018

Chris Evans trades a Captain America shield for an NYPD badge in his Broadway debut in Kenneth Lonergan’s drama “Lobby Hero.”

Evans’s deft performance is one of the pluses of this fine-tuned show, which marks Second Stage’s inaugural Broadway production at the renovated Hayes Theater.

Seen Off-Broadway in 2001, the funny-sad play presents a group portrait of four nighthawks who collide in the foyer of a Manhattan high-rise.

The elevator is prominent in the revolving set for a reason: Everybody’s trying to ascend. But gender, race and personalities get in the way.
