To Kill A Mockingbird

Adapted by Christopher Sergel; From the novel by Harper Lee.

Scout, a young girl in a quiet 1930’s Southern town, is about to experience dramatic events that will affect the rest of her life. She and her brother Jem are being raised by their widowed father Atticus. When Atticus, a lawyer, upsets the town by defending a young black man wrongfully accused of a grave crime, Scout asks her father why he’s doing it. "Because if I didn’t," her father replies, "I couldn’t hold my head up." Atticus fights his legal battle with a result that is part defeat, part triumph. This play is a meaningful work of art.
