Join us for the play, Marx in Nairobi

Dennis Brutus plays Karl Marx

The premise of this witty, insightful ‘play on history’ is that Karl
Marx has agitated with the authorities of the afterlife for a chance to
clear his name. But thanks to bureaucratic error, Marx is sent to
Nairobi, rather than back to Soho, London.

Author Howard Zinn, best known for his book, A People’s History of the
United States, introduces us to Karl, his wife Jenny and the kids, and
others. Brutus, honorary professor at the Centre for Civil Society,
University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, SA, plays the lead.

Marx in Nairobi is a brilliant introduction to Marx's life, his analysis
of society, and his passion for radical change. Zinn/Brutus also show
how relevant Marx's ideas are today.
