Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird

Harper Lee’s enduring classic To Kill a Mockingbird is adapted anew as Aaron Sorkin, the brilliant and beautifully idealistic creator of The West Wing and A Few Good Men, returns to writing for the stage. 

When upstanding lawyer Atticus Finch seeks justice for a wrongfully accused man, he is tested by the limits of his virtue and the uneasy work of forgiveness in a world ruptured in two. Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel has resonated powerfully for over six decades. What does it mean to revisit this beloved classic today with fresh eyes  — to consider how far we’ve come, and how far we still need to go? 

Artistic Director Loretta Greco creates the first regional production of Sorkin’s soaring adaptation, especially for Boston.
