This week on From on the Vault, we celebrate Karl Marx’s birthday with a performance of Marx in Soho, Howard Zinn’s play that resurrects the German philosopher in defense of his theory and character. A one-man play written in 1999, Marx in Soho starred Brian Jones and effectively potrayed Marx as a family man struggling to support his wife and children. This performance was recorded specifically for radio in 2001 by KPFK in Los Angeles.
From the Vault is presented through the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project, funded in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, past grants from the Grammy Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and the American Archive funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, along with the generous support of Pacifica Radio Listeners.
