To Kill a Mockingbird
Description
Compass Rose Theater is proud to open its 2nd season with To Kill a Mockingbird, dramatized by Christopher Sergel from the Pulitzer Prize winning book by Harper Lee. In this American classic, young Scout sees her father Atticus exhibit a kindness and desire for justice that will leave an indelible mark on his daughter and a small town in Alabama in the year 1935. To Kill a Mockingbird teaches us about the importance of community, tolerance, love, and compassion. Atticus tells Scout that you can never truly understand another human being without first taking a walk in their shoes. It is this striking lesson that speaks directly to the mission of Compass Rose Theater, and we hope you will join our students and actors as they walk in the shoes of these memorable characters in our first production of the season.
