The Angel Next Door Reviews
LA Splash- Recommended
"...Directed by Cate Caplin, THE ANGEL NEXT DOOR lives up to its billing as a 1940s screwball romantic comedy. The play bounces between unexpected and often farcical situations (what are five doors for anyway) and a tribute to the people who make theater live. The cast makes the best of the play, even though it is littered with stereotypes and tropes - particularly in the persons of the foreign housekeeper Olga Molnar (SKY Palkowitz) and dull-witted, narcissistic Broadway heartthrob Victor Pratt (Nick Lunetta). Akbari's clever physical humor is also an wily surprise."
Stage Scene LA- Highly Recommended
"...The stakes are sky-high when an about-to-be-published young novelist discovers that the inspiration for his debut opus may not be The Angel Next Door he's imagined her to be in the Los Angeles Premiere of Paul Slade Smith's latest comedic bonbon, a surefire late-spring hit for International City Theatre."
Night Tinted Glasses- Highly Recommended
"...The moment I walked into the theatre to see The Angel Next Door by Paul Slade Smith, I had a clue about the play. Mind you, it only confirmed what the poster hinted. One room with that many doors indicated farce. Doors to hide into, to slam, to try to keep shut, etc."
