According to the Village, "When the Soviets set out to create a Broadway musical, they decide they'll need to bring in some real New York writers — by force, if necessary. Enter Howard and Murray, two down-and-out musical theatre writers, who are on the brink of throwing in the towel. Kidnapped, taken to Moscow, and forced to fix the worst musical ever written, these two characters suddenly find themselves working under the gun…literally! With an uproarious and upbeat score, Iron Curtain is a knock 'em down hit with laughs at every corner."

Tomkins co-choreographs with Kristin Culp. Musical direction is by R.J. Tancioco, scenic design is by Bill Forrester, lighting design id by Gregory Award-nominee Tom Sturge, costume design is by Karen Ledger and sound design is by Gino Scarpino.
