We were given complimentary tickets to The Panic of '29 for review purposes. Any and all opinions expressed here are our own.


What: The Panic of '29

Where: 59E59 Theatres
             59 E. 59 Theaters
             New York, NY 

Who: Recommended for Ages 12 and Up

When: Through August 20, 2022

Me -  The Panic of '29 was allegedly a show about the stock market crash. It was a very unusual show. A lot of them I didn't wasn't sure what was going on. It was very unpredictable. The acting was good. There was even one actor who apparently stepped in at the last minute and didn't a really good job. The actors really seemed to be enjoying themselves. That was the best part of the show. Other than that it was a little too long and kind of confusing. It was not at all what I expected. 

Mom - The Panic of '29 is a reimagining of the stock market crash. The story is hard to follow. There are some really unique characters but there are just too many of them to keep track of, and you just don't feel like you get to know them that much. The acting is decent, and there are a few fun songs in the show although the songs are not very memorable. The actors really seem to be enjoying themselves and as an audience member. you want to too, but the whole thing just drags on much too long and is too confusing. 

And that's our view. Tune in Sunday for this week's Sunday Scoop.
