Prospect Theater Company’s production of Iron Curtain, has announced an extension, and will now play at the Baruch Performing Arts Center through December 4.

Directed by Cara Reichel and featuring choreography by Christine O’Grady, the show, with book by Susan DiLallo, lyrics by Peter Mills, and music by Stephen Weiner, follows the misadventures of two struggling songwriters, Howard Katz and Murray Finkel.

The duo finally get their big break when they are kidnapped by the KGB, taken to Russia and forced to fix the world’s worst communist propaganda musical. With the help of their madcap Soviet collaborators, the team gets a taste of the fame they never had in America.

The company includes Maria Couch, Jenn Gambatese, Todd Alan Johnson, Bobbi Kotula, David Perlman, Aaron Ramey, and Gordon Stanley. The ensemble includes Sara Brophy, Ronn Burton, Clint Carter, John Fico, Andrea McCullough, James Patterson, Robby Sharpe and Aubrey Sinn.
