To Kill a Mockingbird
Presented by Phoenix Theatre
By Christopher Sergel
Based on the novel by Harper Lee. Directed by Julie Martin
The Phoenix Theatre invites you to this classic play set in Alabama
during the Great Depression. To Kill a Mockingbird follows the journey of Jem
and Scout Finch, whose father has been appointed to defend Tom Robinson, a
black man framed for a crime he didn’t commit. As the trial progresses, Jem and
Scout witness their community in a tense tug of war between justice and racism.
This timeless classic compels us to take an honest look at our nation’s past
and our moral responsibility to each other.
