‘Hero Work’

Full-Length Play

Josh Watkins wants to save the world — either as superhero The Good Prowler or as a reporter. But when a tragedy strikes the city the Good Prowler serves, he must find the best way to save whom he can.

Playwright Peter Fenton said of “Hero Work” on New Play Exchange:

Adam Richter’s deceptively simple Batman/Spotlight mashup play is witty, thought-provoking, and touchingly human.

‘Hero Work’ received a staged reading on May 29, 2025, at GoggleWorks Center for the Arts in Reading, Pa.

It has not yet been produced on stage.
