Event Description

The Umbrella Stage Company proudly presents TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, directed by Scott Edmiston and dramatized by Christopher Sergel, based on the book by Harper Lee. Adapted from the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, To Kill a Mockingbird opens in a sleepy Alabama town in the midst of the Great Depression, where Scout and her brother, Jem, live with their widowed father, lawyer Atticus Finch. While the children act out stories and muse about their mysterious neighbor, Boo Radley, the facade of their seemingly peaceful town begins to crack when a young black man is accused of a terrible crime. Driven by an unshakeable moral conviction, Atticus defends the man in a trial that sends violent waves through the community, teaching young Scout about prejudice, compassion, and the courage to do what is right. This hard-hitting work is an all-new production of Harper Lee’s story that is timeless, lingering, and searingly relevant. A special KidCare Show on Sunday, March 15, will allow parents an opportunity to attend a matinee performance while their child(ren) ages 5-12 engage in art activities inspired by the show in one of The Umbrella's classrooms with an experienced teacher. Dinner & A Show packages are available for all Thursday night performances. Talk Backs are scheduled following the Sunday, March 8, and Sunday, March 15 performances. TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD is produced by special arrangement with Dramatic Publishing, Woodstock, Illinois.

Playing in Theater 144 at 40 Stow Street, Concord, MA from Friday, February 27 - Sunday, March 22, 2026 | Previews: Friday, February 27 & Saturday, February 28 | Press Opening: Sunday, March 1.

Lexington and Concord. April 19, 1775. Where and when the Revolutionary War started is well known. Not so well known is the fact that Harvard played an important, if odd, role afterward in the early days of the Revolution, turning its campus over to the nascent American army. On May 1, 1775, undergraduates were dismissed and given an early summer vacation. Classes resumed on Oct. 5 in Concord, 20 miles away — the beginning of a wartime academic sojourn.
