On the eve of this Pulitzer-prize winning novel's 50th Anniversary, 2nd Story brings to the stage this timely and powerful drama, imaginatively dramatized by Christopher Sergel. Growing up in the deep south of the 1930's, young Scout and Jem find their small town in a tail-spin when their father and upstanding lawyer, Atticus Finch, agrees to defend a falsely accused man. A story of love, courage, and family, Harper Lee's coming-of-age classic is an epic saga brimming with stark lessons of tolerance and quiet heroism.
