Das Kapital To Be Made Into A Stage Show In China

Das Kapital may be transformed from a treatise on political economy into a stage show by Chinese producers. The written work is an extensive treatise on political economy written in German by Karl Marx and edited in part by Friedrich Engels. The book is a critical analysis of capitalism. Its first volume was published in 1867.

According to the guardian.co.uk "Director He Nian- best known for his stage adaptation of a martial-arts spoof- has promised to unite elements from Broadway musicals and Las Vegas shows in a hip, interesting and educational play featuring a live band, singing and dancing."

The play is set to open next year.
