Sorkin’s stage adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird played its final performance at Broadway's Shubert Theatre January 16. The acclaimed production is scheduled to reopen at Broadway's Belasco Theatre beginning June 1, with Greg Kinnear returning to the role of Atticus Finch.

Directed by Bartlett Sher, the adaptation of Harper Lee's novel officially opened December 13, 2018. The production recouped its original investment in 19 weeks after opening.

Tony nominee Jeff Daniels (Sorkin's The Newsroom) originally took on the central role of Atticus Finch in the staging, which frames the Alabama-set story as a memory play as Scout recalls the 1930s trial in which her father defended a Black man accused of raping a white girl. Celia Keenan-Bolger won a Tony Award creating the role of Scout on Broadway. Read opening night reviews here.

To Kill a Mockingbird began performances November 1, 2018, at Broadway’s Shubert Theatre. On February 26, 2020—a few weeks before the Broadway shutdown—the Broadway cast gave a history-making free performance at Madison Square Garden in front of 18,000 New York City school children. Mockingbird subsequently resumed performances at Broadway's Shubert October 5, 2021.

To Kill a Mockingbird is designed by Miriam Buether, with costumes by Ann Roth, lighting by Jennifer Tipton, sound by Scott Lehrer, an original score by Adam Guettel, musical direction by Kimberly Grigsby, hair and wig design by Campbell Young Associates, casting by The Telsey Office, and design adaptation and supervision by Edward Pierce. The national tour is produced by Barry Diller.
