[Marxism] Howard Zinn's MARX IN SOHO



Hello,
I have long been trying to keep up with the marx mail list, and a wealth
of information that lands in my inbox. It seems that there are not
nearly enough hours in the day for me to keep up on this reading, but I
do enjoy trying.

I saw an e-mail come through where someone was looking for some guidance
on Barcelona travel which got me thinking about a project I'm involved
with that I could use some help with. I'm not sure if this is
appropriate for this list but I thought I would give it a try. I do
hope it does not offend anyone.

For sometime I've been involved in a small theater/activist project
touring Howard Zinn's MARX IN SOHO. I'm sure many of you are familiar
with the play but if not, you can check this out www.levyarts.com or
send me an e-mail. While we're small we have taken this play throughout
the United States, Canada and Europe, performing it in theaters schools,
social centers and community spaces, cafés and other venues. I am
always looking for help/guidance finding places to take the play. I
would greatly appreciate any guidance people from this list could
provide. Maybe you know of a theater or school or other venue that you
think we should check out or perhaps a conference you think would be
appropriate. We are touring in Europe this summer and we have some
holes in our schedule where would be great to add another performance.
This fall we are looking for for performances runs in the USA and Canada.

I should mention that we also love using the play to help organizations
stimulate community interest in their work while also raising money.
Among other things, the play encourages people to get involved making it
perfect for a benefit. So if you know of an organization who might be
interested in using the play as a benefit, please let me know.

The play provides a good introduction to Marx and his ideas and for
those who know more, it provides a great exploration of the man behind
the theories. It is entertaining and educational making it a perfect fit
for many settings.

Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks
David
