Iron Curtain
“An enthusiastic farce… high-spirited and snark-free… old-fashioned in all the best ways.”
— NEW YORK TIMES
““Theatergoers of the world, unite in giggling. You have nothing to lose but your depression... [It’s] irresistible.”
— VILLAGE VOICE
“It's a mystery to me why Iron Curtain, a highly polished revival of Prospect Theater Company's hilarious 2006 hit about two song-and-dance men conscripted to Moscow during the Cold War, should be in the Baruch Performing Arts Center -- and not, say, Broadway.”

“Rarely do a talented (and well-cast) group of actors, an innovative creative team, and witty, well-written material land in the same theater at the same time. But Prospect Theater Company makes it look easy. Cara Reichel has meticulously helmed this hilarious throwback to the golden age of musicals, and the production and the work give hope for the fate of the American tuner.”
