About To Kill a Mockingbird
Aaron Sorkin's new play is based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about the enduring story of racial injustice and childhood innocence. Inspired by the writer's own childhood in Alabama, To Kill a Mockingbird features one of literature’s towering symbols of integrity and righteousness in the character of Atticus Finch, based on Lee’s own father. The character of Scout, based on herself, has come to define youthful innocence – and its inevitable loss – for generation after generation of readers around the world. Author Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’s’ iconic character Atticus Finch has become a byword for speaking out for what is right. Now a London theatre production has brought the taut drama to the stage and it has been showered with praise; the Evening Standard calls it ‘A powerfully uplifting theatrical event of sheer emotion and moral force’. Aaron Sorkin’s play premiered on Broadway in 2018, and earned nine Tony nominations, becoming the most successful American play in Broadway history.

To Kill A Mockingbird London
To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee is one of the most banned books of all time. Now, Sorkin’s new stage production promises to continue that same controversial tradition. In Sorkin’s daring new production, the Atticus Finch audiences remember from the novel may prove to be a little more shadowy, and the story presented to them a little more challenging.
When Tom Robinson, a black man living in 1930s Alabama, is falsely accused of a terrible crime, lawyer Atticus Finch steps up. His goal is to prove that the charges are unjust and that Tom is innocent. However, the legal system he works in is not designed to benefit people like Tom, and the anger that Atticus is met with soon extends to his children, Scout and Jem, in one of the most confronting experiences of their young lives.
With great moral force and powerful storytelling from Sorkin, To Kill A Mockingbird reminds audiences what can happen if we let our prejudices overwhelm us.
