Just found out about this today

The musical follows John Rawls on a journey through time to gain inspiration for A Theory of Justice from a chorus of singing and dancing political philosophers, including Plato, Locke, Hobbes, Rousseau, Mill, Wollstonecraft, Marx and Kant. As he pursues his love interest, a beautiful student named Fairness, Rawls is menaced by villainous libertarian philosopher Robert Nozick and his lover Ayn Rand, who plot to stop Rawls writing his redistributionist theory of justice.

Besides being one of the writers, Tommy is also appearing on stage: “I’m playing Karl Marx. “He’s a slightly crazy, homeless man. He goes around shouting that the end is nigh. “He comes across a bemused John Rawls, who doesn’t quite know how to react to him. (Interview with writers)

Silly commies, didn't you know that communism is when you want everyone to be poor?

guess who wrote this

One of the 3 co-writers is Eylon Levy, former official Israeli government ~~spokesperson~~ propagandist/genocide apologist, when he was an Oxford PPE undergrad.

Sounds awful. I want Wisecrack to do a video about it now, though.
