MILWAUKEE – Marquette Theatre will present a special “Theatre and Social Justice Production,” To Kill a Mockingbird, which has been adapted for the stage by Christopher Sergel.
Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning 1960 novel by Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird is the story of tomboy Scout Finch who watches her lawyer father Atticus undertake his most controversial case. It is a story of racial injustice, courage and compassion. Through young Scout’s journey, the struggle to do what’s right over what’s easy inspires hope and understanding. The play will run:

- Wednesday, Nov. 18, through Saturday, Nov. 21, at 7:30 p.m.
