It has just been announced that Aaron Sorkin’s critically acclaimed play adaptation of Harper Lee‘s best selling novel To Kill a Mockingbird is set to reopen here on the Great Bright Way.

In addition, Orin Wolf (Once, Fiddler on the Roof, and The Band’s Visit) has been tapped to replace Scott Rudin as head producer on this production.
