About the Play

"Don't you wonder: why is it necessary to declare me dead again and again?"

Marx
 is back! The premise of this witty and insightful "play on history" is 
that Karl Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a 
chance to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, though, Marx is 
sent to Soho in New York, rather than his old stomping ground in London,
 to make his case.

Howard Zinn, best known for his book, 'A 
Peoples History of the United States', 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 of society, and his passion for radical change. Zinn also 
shows how Marx's ideas are relevant in today's world.

Brian 
Jones, an African American actor and activist, has been performing this 
engaging one-man show across the country since 1999. Marx in Soho is a 
brilliant introduction to Marx's life, his analysis of society, and his 
passion for radical change.
