TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD

Jonathan Church Theatre Productions has announced the UK & Ireland tour of the critically acclaimed, smash hit Broadway and West End production of Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird, adapted for the stage by the Oscar-winning Aaron Sorkin and Directed by Tony Award-winning Bartlett Sher.

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.
