Synopsis
Miss Marx … plays out the remarkably true story of Karl Marx's youngest daughter, Eleanor. Known throughout Victorian England as an actress and political activist, Eleanor finds it far easier to fight for equality on a soapbox than in the bedroom. After falling into a tempestuous affair with a married man, can she follow her heart without abandoning the revolution? Recipient of the Joseph Jefferson Award for Best New Work, 2014.
