Description

3:00 p.m. John Williams, Author, Monroeville and the Stage Production of To Kill a Mockingbird Sponsored by Dadeville Public Library No ticket required. Tickets and information available at dadevilleperformingartscenter.com

Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird burst into the world in 1960, followed by the Academy Award-winning film in 1962. Since then, the story of Scout, Atticus, Tom Robinson, and Boo Radley have been an indelible part of American culture. Playwright Christopher Sergel secured Harper Lee’s blessing in 1970 for the stage adaptation of her novel he was working on. In 1991, newly-hired Kathy McCoy began the annual ritual of staging the show on its home turf, as a fundraising project. In her sixteen years of directing the amateur show, McCoy took the production around the world. Mockingbird Tales chronicles that extraordinary journey along with a wealth of side stories from the deep and colorful history of Monroeville and Monroe County themselves.
