One of the greatest modern classics, To Kill a Mockingbird is the powerful story of a fight for racial justice in a community divided and ruled by prejudice and discrimination.

Performed by a cast of eleven in one of the most talked about productions of recent years, To Kill a Mockingbird is adapted by Christopher Sergel from the book by Harper Lee which, at over 30 million copies sold, is one of the best selling novels of all time.

The courageous story of a fight for justice in a racially divided community, To Kill a Mockingbird was named as Best Production, with Gwyn Vaughan Jones Best Actor for his portaryal of lawyer Atticus Finch and Tim Baker given the accolade as Best Director in the Daily Post arts awards in December 2001.

Showcasing Welsh stagecraft at its best, To Kill a Mockingbird also featured blues, gospel and worksongs from the 1930s played and sung live by members of the cast with other incidental music composed by Tim Baker and Musical Director Dyfan Jones.

This is gripping storytelling and emotionally charged theatre – you’ll remember these people for a long time
North Wales Weekly News.

There is nothing to fault this production which is moving, entertaining, thoughtprovoking – in fact spellbinding from beginning to end.

If you needed to see one stage drama last year it was To Kill A Mockingbird, a theatre version of the novel presented by Mold's Clwyd Theatr Cymru.
It was one of those shows which had a satisfying storyline, a theatrical way of presenting it and performances which raised lumps in the throat.
Not surprisingly, it went on tour to become a huge success with sell-out performances everywhere.
