Robin & Jane In The Stalls Episode 62 - To Kill A Mockingbird

This week, Robin & Jane head to the iconic Grand Opera House in Belfast to catch the powerful UK & Ireland Tour of To Kill a Mockingbird — and it’s running only until 7th March, so there’s still time to grab your tickets! In this episode, they dive into Aaron Sorkin’s riveting, award-winning stage adaptation of Harper Lee’s seminal novel. A Broadway and West End sensation with star-studded, sell-out seasons on both sides of the Atlantic, this gripping courtroom drama is now touring the UK & Ireland for the very first time. Set in 1934 Alabama, the story follows principled lawyer Atticus Finch as he strives to teach his children empathy and integrity — values that are truly tested when he takes on a case in a town determined to bury the truth. Inspired by Harper Lee’s own childhood, the novel has sold over 45 million copies worldwide, won the Pulitzer Prize, and remains one of the most discussed (and frequently challenged) books in modern literature. So what did Robin & Jane think of this fresh touring production? Does Sorkin’s adaptation pack the same punch on tour? And how does this classic story resonate with audiences today? 👉 Tune in now for lively discussion, honest opinions, and plenty of theatrical insight.
