You probably know Howard Zinn as the author of The People’s History of the United States. But did you know that he also wrote a one-man play about Karl Marx to “show Marx as few people knew him, as a family man, struggling to support his wife and children”? Bob Weick of Iron Age Theatre will be performing that play, Marx in Soho, in the 2010 Philly Fringe. Check out this preview:

Marx in Soho runs from Sept. 8 – 18th at Twelve Gates Art Gallery, 205 Cherry Street.
