(THEATER) Sometimes you just want a well-built play: no absurdist flavors,
no fire-eating burlesque aerialists, no crazy musical distractions.
Lobby Hero scratches the itch—there's a chipper, motor-mouthed security guard,
romantically entangled cops, a few life-and-death moral dilemmas, good actors, a smart director, and a playwright who understands language and people. (
Bathhouse Theater, 7312 W Green Lake Dr N, 524-1300. 2 pm, $18. Through April 30.)
