To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Lee
To Kill a Mockingbird is produced and performed by Montana Repertory Theatre. Winner of the 1960 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird is unquestionably an American classic. This novel, now celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of its publication, was brought to the screen in an Academy Award-winning adaptation by Horton Foote in 1962 and was later adapted for the stage by Christopher Sergel.
Though over 35 years old, this stage adaptation continues to compel and delight viewers worldwide with its warmth, wit, and wisdom. Audiences find themselves transported to a sleepy Southern town in the 1930s and discover that the issues of that time – prejudice, racism, and human values – are issues of all time.
Aside from watching PHANTOM OF THE OPERA on Broadway 10 years ago, this is my only exposure to live theater. I loved and embraced every moment of the last night's production. Looks like I've found yet another thing to love.
