To Kill A Mockingbird

About To Kill a Mockingbird

To Kill a Mockingbird is Aaron Sorkin's award-winning stage adaptation of Harper Lee's novel, returning to the West End for a strictly limited summer season. It centres on successful lawyer Atticus Finch as he encourages kindness and empathy in his children while trying to uncover the truth in a town determined to hide it.

Set in 1934 Alabama, the story is inspired by Harper Lee's own childhood. The novel has sold more than 45 million copies worldwide, won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature and was long at the top of the banned book lists. The production has also been seen in a sell-out national tour across the UK and Ireland.

Running time: Approximately 2 hours 50 minutes, including an interval.
