To Kill a Mockingbird
Aaron Sorkin’s riveting, award-winning stage adaptation of the seminal American novel about racial
injustice and childhood innocence became a Broadway and West End sensation with star-studded
sell-out seasons on both sides of the Atlantic. Now this thrilling courtroom drama embarks on a UK &
Ireland tour for the very first time.
Successful lawyer, Atticus Finch, encourages kindness and empathy in his children, but is pushed to
the limits of these qualities himself when he resolves to uncover the truth in a town that seems
determined to hide it.
Set in 1934 Alabama, To Kill a Mockingbird was inspired by novelist Harper Lee’s own childhood and
has sold more than 45 million copies worldwide. It won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature and was long
at the top of the banned book lists.
Oscar winning writer Aaron Sorkin's stage adaptation of To Kill A Mockingbird is paired with Bartlett
Sher’s visionary direction. Aaron Sorkin has had many years of great success on stage and screen. He
is perhaps best known as the creator and screenwriter of hit TV series The West Wing, and as the
screenwriter for The Social Network, for which he received an Academy Award, Golden Globe,
BAFTA and Writer’s Guild Award. He is also the writer-creator of The Newsroom and Academy
Award-winning film A Few Good Men. Bartlett Sher spent over ten years as Director of New York’s
Lincoln Centre Theater, and has also headed acclaimed productions such as My Fair Lady, The King
and I and South Pacific.
