Treasure on 36th Street
By critic5

I had read positive and negative reactions to the production of The Hunt for Treasure by professional and amateur reviewers alike. It was enough to peak my interest enough to spend the $15 to go and see the show. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it - but with a caveat.

Yet inconceivably, there were several people screaming and laughing throughout the show - they appeared to be British (perhaps they were friends of the cast?)

The review that says "people were laughing throughout the show" is probably technically true - but that revie...

Hunting for flaws in The Hunt for Treasure
By dsnelus who lives in Gramercy

Spot on - the opening night will be hard to beat in terms of laughs.  The audience lapped it up and the both performances were of the very highest order! Deeply recommended!

I went into the show not knowing what to expect, what i found was fun and laughter as well as two excellent acting performances from Pearson and Kelly. two actors to watch i would suggest!
