Set in 1935 in the rural south, To Kill a Mockingbird examines racism as seen through the eyes of the Finch family: daughter Scout, son Jem, and their father, Atticus, a lawyer who defends a young black man falsely accused of beating and raping a young white woman. Though the story explores big themes, it is told from a child’s perspective. The result is a tough and tender story about race, class, justice, and the pain of growing up.
Recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the most inspiring films of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been entertaining and enlightening audiences for over 40 years. Harper Lee’s 1960 Pulitzer Prize winning novel is brought to life in this thought-provoking play.
