16. Summary
Nick The Doorman is an urban dramatic comedy set in New York City. It is
centered on the life experiences of Nick, a funny, light-hearted doorman, at a
historic and upscale Central Park South hotel. Nick and his colorful cast of
friends, through interactions with one another and the hotel s upper class
celebrity and high society guests, provide a unique, comedic perspective of
everyday life in the big city, and similarities and distinctions between the
classes filtering in and out of the posh hotel.
16
The project for me is seen as an
urban, modern mix between
Diner and Swingers.
