Being a production f Montana Repertory Theatre, the stage show is a faithful adaptation of  Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Harper Lee.  The play is about the tale of a widower and attorney Atticus Finch who defends the case of a young black man. The black man gets falsely accused for his allegedly violating white woman of rural Alabama in 1950s. The story is narrated through his tomboyish daughter, a Scout. The play is a poignant narration of characteristics of acceptance, forgiveness and justice, which are essential in today’s context. These ideas were born on American literary landscape 50 years back. The Harper Lee’s prize winning novel was an instant success and has become an important part of modern American fiction. The novel is based on the observations of author during his childhood near her hometown.
