A Literary Masterpiece!
Harper Lee’s literary masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird, comes to life on stage! Join young Scout Finch as she embarks on a journey through the complexities of morality, discrimination, and empathy in the Deep South during the 1930s. This powerful and thought-provoking play brings to light the timeless themes of justice and compassion, as Atticus Finch, one of literature’s most iconic characters, defends a wrongly accused black man in a racially charged trial. With the help of Atticus, and her older brother Jem, Scout learns that “growing up” often means doing what is right, even when it comes at a great cost. Presented at the historic World Theatre, To Kill A Mockingbird is a must-see for both newcomers and longtime fans of the novel.
