‘Lobby Hero’ opens at KCKCC Theater this weekend

by Kelly Rogge, KCKCC

The Kansas City Kansas Community College Theater Department is putting the final touches on its fall production, “Lobby Hero.”

“Lobby Hero” is set in the lobby of a Manhattan apartment building, which is much more than a waiting area for four New Yorkers involved in a murder investigation. It’s a testing ground for what happens when personal and professional personas find themselves at odds – a young security guard with big ambitions clashes with his stern boss, an intense rookie cop and her unpredictable partner.

“Lobby Hero” is at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 11, 12 and 13. There is also a matinee performance at 2:30 p.m. Oct. 14. Tickets are $7 for adults, $5 for non-KCKCC students and seniors (60+), and free for KCKCC students, faculty and staff. All shows are in the KCKCC Performing Arts Center, 7250 State Ave.

The theater production includes Sheridan Smith, Kaleb Anderson, Jessie Twitchell and Alex Hatch.
