TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD in Rehearsal For October Run in Woodbury

For the past 50 years, To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Lee's iconic American novel about life in a sleepy Alabama town - has been a favorite of audiences the world over, whether through the book, the Academy Award-winning film version of Christopher Sergel's acclaimed stage production. The Arts Center of Cannon County presents To Kill a Mockingbird in Woodbury October 7-22.

Set in small-town Alabama in the 1930s, To Kill A Mockingbird tells the story of a young girl named Scout and her first encounters with prejudice - as she, her friend and her brother try to contact their mysterious, reclusive neighbor, Boo Radley, and as her father, Atticus, defends a black man, Tom Robinson, accused of raping a white woman in a racially-charged trial.

Directed by Scarlett Turney, this production features Sarah Kate Helton as Scout, James Bassant as Jem and David Cummings as Atticus Finch. The cast also includes Keegan Miller, Becky Hayes, Faye Northcutt-Knox, Becky Coutras, Andrew McKnight, Ted Verbeten, Michael McGee, James Atkins, Quintin Parnell, Phil Mote, Blanche Glimps, Steve Underwood, Richard Stickney, Alexandra McNamara, Matt Hunter and Heather Willow.
