"...Under Tony Lawry’s direction, the cast generally finds the tonal shifts between the pieces. The Wilder and Chekhov selections are easily the standouts, but for anyone with an interest in theater history, the 90-minute show provides an opportunity to delve into lesser-known works."

"...Theatre Above the Law’s production of “A Night of Classic and Unique One Acts” was never dull but seemed overacted and overdone. The four one-act plays are made up of “A Dollar” by David Pinski, “The Wreck on the 525” by Thornton Wilder, “Fourteen” by Alice Gerstenberg, and “The Proposal” by Anton Chekhov. The stories are very different from each other and are not of equal caliber. If you’re into watching highly dramatized and exaggerated performances, then this is a must see for you. If you’re not into seeing actors doing lots of emoting and shouting, then I would not recommend this show."
