To Kill A Mockingbird
Presented by Independent Theatre Inc
General On-sale:
23 Dec 2011
Scout Finch and her brother Jem live in a small Alabama town in the 1930s. The biggest issue confronting them is how to get the local recluse, Boo Radley, to come out of his seemingly haunted house. That is, until their lawyer father, Atticus, is appointed to defend Tom Robinson, a young black man accused of raping a white woman.
Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem, we see the irrationality of adult attitudes towards race and class, and how the conscience of a community steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the quiet heroism of one man's struggle for justice.
