In the Fall of 1991, Pushcart Players toured the former Soviet Union with the production, “Three Cheers For America.”  It was received with great enthusiasm on the dawn of the newly democratized government.  Shortly after Pushcart’s return, Senator Frank Lautenberg praised  the company in the Congressional record by saying, “In taking their talents overseas, they have proved again how art can transcend cultural barriers.  Through their play, ‘Three Cheers For America,’ they have created new friendships and promoted a cultural exchange.”
