![]() Thursday, February 19, 2009 - 7:00 PM Winner of the 1960 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, Harper Lee’s “To Kill A Mockingbird” is unquestionably an American classic.Thirty five years later this stage adaptation continues to compel and delight viewers worldwide with its warmth, wit, and wisdom.The story of “To Kill A Mockingbird” is simple, yet it speaks deeply and eloquently of human nature and of human values. Montana Repertory Theatre returns to the Husby Series after last season’s “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof.” Their passion, artistry and strong production values keep them coming back to communities year after year.The company was established as a professional touring company in 1967 to provide theater of the highest caliber to its own and neighboring Western states. Prejudice, racism, and human values are not issues of a particular time; they are issues of all times.“To Kill A Mockingbird” places these issues in a context that transcends the story’s individuals and their actions. Lead character, Atticus Finch teaches his children “you never really understand a person until you consider the things from his point of view…until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” Through this live performance, audiences come as close as possible to taking that walk. |
