Critical reception
[edit]While writing about Bauer's first play, A Dream Out of Time, Clive Barnes wrote for The New York Times, that "although it may not be flawless, it is strong, honest and serious. It has something of Arthur Miller's intensity and thrust to it and also a great deal of integrity and moral concern."[11] The Wheaton Bill wrote, "We feel certain that any Jew could relate to the happenings on the stage,"[12] and the Toronto Star wrote "beyond understanding the tug of family, the unwitting destructiveness of which parents are capable, the hesitations of children about deviating from a traditional life-style, Bauer gives his people language bristling with drive, distinctiveness and the rough force of reality."[13]
In 1975, The Seattle Times wrote that A Fine and Private Place "is a theatre piece of interest and merit. Although, the play is set in a cemetery, the play concerns itself not with death but with life."[14] In 1998, Bauer wrote the play Bull Dog and The Bear with Richard Gordon, that received positive reviews with the Lansing State Journal writing that, "Sensitive, serious, silly and hilarious, the play should enjoy many more standing ovations in years to come."[15]
