"[The Iron Heel] serves up food for thought with an appealing
heart-on-sleeve warmth. You may well find yourself humming some of
those tunes on the way out."
Elisabeth Vincentelli
The New York Times
"The production manages to give the story a deeper emotional impact
thanks to the terrific cast...But most of all, the production
brings alive the hope and horror of the revolutionaries who fought
in the early 20th century in a way that feels relevant and
contemporary to a modern audience."
Geoff Bailey

"Edward Einhorn not only absorbed creatively the impetus given by
Jack London's The Iron Heel but also thought over again in its
light political discourse as a whole."
Alexandra Scruggs
The Financial Times
5 STARS "This well-acted, cleverly executed production is a
mind-bending tour de force of ideas, as only Einhorn can deliver,
with darkly twisting humor and swaths of realism thrown in to
perplex.."
Carole DiTosti
blogcritics "A rousing tale of rigged elections, false identities,
prison escapes, bombings, romantic interludes, songs of solidarity,
and scenes of terrifying carnage."

"I was impressed by how moved much of the audience was - old
lefties and younger millennials finding a common bond in a story
and songs over 100 years old. It is a fun night."

"Einhorn and his Untitled Theater Company #61 prove again a master
(but a benevolent one) in turning intellectual matters into
engaging stage shows."
Jonathan Mandell
New York Theater
"A solid introduction to Jack London and his work in a time wrought
with doubts about the current economic and political landscape
across the globe. Einhorn's adaptation is a testament to the idea
that, sometimes, the best way to understand the past is the best
way to understand the present. "
