Marisa Tomei, who appeared on Broadway in "Wait Until Dark" opposite Quentin Tarantino last season, has signed to star in "The Lobby," which is seeking an Off Broadway debut in the fall, Variety reports. The play explores the relationship between a white security guard and his black boss as they trade observations about two cops who are using the apartment building they guard as a trysting spot. Tomei was most recently on the big screen last year in "Slums of Beverly Hills." She won an Oscar for her work in the 1992 picture "My Cousin Vinny."
