Historian and activist, Howard Zinn is most well known for his alternative portrait of American history, “A People’s History of the United States.” Here Zinn proves himself a talented playwright, presenting a play that is both enlightening and entertaining!

Come see Howard Zinn's Marx in Soho one of three nights! Saturday the 9th, Sunday the 10th and Monday the 11th. At 8pm.

$15 suggested donation. No one turned away.

Howard Zinn’s “Marx in Soho” portrays the return of Marx. Embedded in some secular afterlife where intellectuals, artists, and radicals are sent, Marx is given permission by the administrative committee to return to Soho London to have his say. But through a bureaucratic mix–up, he winds up in SOHO in New York. From there the audience is given a rare glimpse of a Marx seldom talked about; Marx the man.

The Play offers an entertaining and thorough introduction to a person who knows little about Marx’s life, while also offering valuable insight to students of his ideas.

Directed by Michael Fox Kennedy with Jerry Levy as Karl Marx.
