Aaron Sorkin’s play adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird remains as impactful as the iconic book has been since the 1960s. Set in a 1930s Alabama courtroom, the narrative starts with a black man wrongly accused of raping a white woman. Even though the ending to this story seems obvious, you’ll find yourself experiencing a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Due to the depth of the actors’ emotions, you may find yourself leaning in to get as close as possible to the stage and its intriguing acting.
Emmy winner Richard Thomas (The Waltons) plays Atticus Finch, the lawyer who is defending the falsely accused Tom Robinson, played by Yaegel T. Welch. Atticus’ children, Scout, played by Melanie Moore and Jem, played by Justin Mark and understudy Daniel Neale, along with their friend Dill narrate and keep the story moving forward. These actors collectively provide an outstanding performance while also keeping the humanity at the heart of the play. All the while, you’ll laugh, nod, and weep as the realities of life are brought to center stage. This story resonates now as much as it did when To Kill a Mockingbird was first written. This production gives Tom Robinson and the Finch family’s housekeeper and caretaker, Calpurnia, played by Jacqueline Williams, have a much larger presence and a more contemporary voice.
Bartett Sher also directs this 24-member cast. He also directs the revival of My Fair Lady, which currently features at the Miami’s Arsht Center around the same time that To Kill a Mockingbird plays in Fort Lauderdale’s Au-Rene Theater at Broward Center for the Performing Arts. The costumes, lighting, and music score transport the audience to a 1930s small town in Alabama, complementing the mood of the scenes perfectly.
A must-see – Aaron Sorkin’s play adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird masterfully delivers this classic story in a more modernized way.
