Howard Zinn's "Marx in Soho"

About the Play, "Marx in Soho,"
written by Howard Zinn:

Agitating the authorities of the afterlife to clear his name, Karl Marx is sent to earth for one hour to make his case. Bureaucracies are the same in heaven as on earth though, and due to a clerical error, Marx lands in Santa Monica California rather than his stomping grounds in Soho London. Not daunted, Marx launches into a passionate, funny and moving defense of his life and political ideas in Howard Zinn's brilliant, timely play "Marx In Soho."

Featuring Bob Weick as Marx

"(Weick) captured Marx and his ideas with the proper strength and subtlety, moving very effectively through a range of moods: humorous,angry, poignant. We admired Weick's transitions, change of pace, the nuances of feeling. In short, I am very happy with what Bob has done. He (John Doyle) directed the play brilliantly ."

"...nothing short of brilliant and continually engaging. It was fascinating to observe Weick's easy shift through a variety of moods: ebullience, frustration, guilt, remorse, embarrassment and heartbreaking sadness.powerful, funny. moving, illuminating, and thought provoking!...An impassioned Weick rises to this occasion, and though it's obvious he is speaking as Marx, the sentiments are clearly Zinn's."
