Slapstick. Comical. Energetic. Mad. Fun and fast-paced. Things you might not to expect to hear about an opera on Karl Marx's life, but this is what you can expect from our UK premiere of Jonathan Dove's 'Marx in London!'. Hear from members of the cast about his "beautifully sounding" "cracking new opera" and get a look into the rehearsal room with director Stephen Barlow and conductor David Parry.
