| Breakdown
All ages and ethnic backgrounds.
Dallas Theater Center maintains a resident acting company. When casting productions, DTC looks first to the Dianne and Hal Brierly Resident Acting Company to fill roles. DTC also maintains a relationship with Meadows School of the Arts at SMU and Booker T Washington High School for the Visual and Performing Arts. As part of this relationship DTC often casts students from these programs in main stage productions.

ADULTS:
Some roles may double.
ATTICUS: Male, nearly 50. Tall, quietly courageous, impressive, a gentleman. A great orator. Everyone’s ideal father.
MISS MAUDIE: Female, 40-45. A widow. A beauty in her youth, now wise, compassionate, intuitive and independent. She has a soft spot for the kids across the street and their father who, like her, was left alone.
WALTER CUNNINGHAM: Male, 40-50. A hard-up farmer who shares the prejudices of his time and place but who is nevertheless a man who can be reached as a human being.
REVEREND SYKES: Male, 50-60, African American. The minister of the First Purchase Church. Imposing, inspiring.
HECK TATE: Male, 40-50. The town sheriff. Solid, regular guy. Dutiful. Weathered. Sweats through complex thoughts.
BOO RADLEY: Male, 30-40. A recluse. Hasn’t seen the sun in 15 years. He might be a pale ghost or a vulnerable giant.
MRS. DUBOSE: Female, 70-80. Ill, disabled. Pain makes her bitter, biting.
TOM ROBINSON: Male, 25-35, African-American. A strong, vital young man. Kind, sensitive, dignified.
JUDGE TAYLOR: Male, 50-60. A wintry man of the South. Authoritative. Well-spoken, sharp if provoked, a sleeping lion.
MR. GILMER: Male, 40-50. Public prosecutor. A capable attorney, he comes off cruel. Also plays MR. RADLEY: wiry, fierce.
BOB EWELL: Male, 45-55. A little bantam-cock of a man. The head of a family that lives on welfare by the town dump. Outrageous, paranoid, uneducated and ignorant, he is operating under the delusion that the trial will make him an important man.
MAYELLA: Female, 19. Desperately lonely, raw, overworked. She can barely follow the argument around her and strikes when threatened.
DOCTOR REYNOLDS/CLERK/LYNCH MOB: Male, 30-50.
