Karl Marx, Sou. Pines, May 18, 19, 20

Howard Zinn brings Karl Marx back to life to address a contemporary audience in Soho in this witty and insightful “play on history.” Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a chance to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, however, Marx is sent to Soho in New York, rather than his old stomping ground in London, to make his case. Zinn introduces us to Marx's wife, Jenny, his children, the anarchist Mikhail Bakunin, and a host of other characters. Marx in Soho is a brilliant introduction to Marx's life, his analysis for society, and his passion for radical change — and the relevance of Marx's ideas for today.

(“I’ve read Marx in Soho and watched Fenton morph into Karl Marx. I highly recommend this fun and educational opportunity to learn some very important things about ourselves and the world we all live in.” — Tom Thompson )
