EXCLUSIVE: 3 Scenes From 'The Unwritten Law'
Chesney Snow's new Off-Broadway show "The Unwritten Law" closes tonight at Dixon Place in New York City.

The "In Transit" star teamed up with director and choreographer Rebecca Arends to craft a piece completely in verse, accompanied by dance.

In the piece, Snow plays many characters and two dancers (Arends and Maleek Washington) fill out the rest of the cast.  They never speak but instead take their cues from Snow's words.

During the full performance, there is musical accompaniment featuring cello, piano, and, of course, Snow's beatbox.
