Aaron Sorkin Rewrites Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird

The National Tour production is a lesson learned.

The poster for the National Tour of To Kill a Mockingbird, now playing at Washington DC’s Kennedy Center, is reprinted on the playbill and whatever merchandise is deemed appropriate. It lists five names, all equal in size of the title — the thing typically deemed the most important, implying that all of these names are of equal footing to To Kill a Mockingbird:

RICHARD THOMAS
as ATTICUS FINCH in
HARPER LEE’s
TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
a new play by
AARON SORKIN
directed by
BARTLETT SHER
