To Kill A Mockingbird

TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD

By Harper Lee; Adapted by Christopher Sergel
Directed by Joe Discher
October 12 – November 20

The characters of Atticus Finch, Scout, and Boo Radley have become iconic figuresin the American consciousness and conscience.  Harper Lee’s Pulitzer-prize winning novel is considered one of the most important works of the 20th century, and it is a must for every new generation.  The story’s enduring spell stems in part from the juxtaposition of the simple,yet astute innocence of a child’s point of view in the face of terrible and terribly complex adult problems and biases.  The fundamental lessons about compassion, integrity, 
and courage are breath-taking and life-changing.
