​

One of the funniest plays ever seen on Broadway, with a warm and affectionate quality that is rare in comedies.

“Take a simple and lovable innocent, guileless, gullible and without malice, and place him in juxtaposition to the pompous earnestness of military discipline and bureaucracy, and you have the springboard for mockery that can be both devastating and heartwarming…its gift for uproarious lampooning is matched only by its genial good nature.” —New York Post.

Complications begin when he lends his eloquence to the young tongue-tied soldier Christian who also loves Roxane. A poignant tale of unspoken love and heroic sacrifice unfolds.

Harper Lee's

To Kill a Mockingbird

Drama

Harper Lee’s masterwork comes to life in this powerful adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird. Set in the racially charged Deep South of the 1930s, this gripping drama follows young Scout Finch as she witnesses her father, Atticus Finch, take a stand for justice in a world steeped in prejudice. Through Scout’s eyes, we explore themes of morality, empathy, and the loss of innocence as Atticus defends a Black man falsely accused of a terrible crime. A stirring reminder of the courage it takes to do what’s right, even when the world tells you not to.

It took us four years to secure the rights to To Kill a Mockingbird, and now we are overjoyed to bring it to the stage for you!
