The move marks the first time a Broadway play has been performed at the venue nicknamed"The World's Most Famous Arena," which has hosted concerts by the Beatles and Billy Joel, boxing bouts between Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali and"The Concert for Bangladesh" in 1971.
The entire current Broadway cast will be present, led by Ed Harris as Atticus Finch. Harris told The AP he was thrilled by the prospect, especially with such a powerful play. "To Kill a Mockingbird" won the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and has been widely praised as a sensitive portrait of racial tension in 1930s Alabama. Finch is a lawyer called upon to defend a black man falsely accused of raping a white woman.
What an amazing opportunity for those kids!
Don't like how it says we wouldn't have been able to see a broadway show if we hadn't gotten tickets. very disrespectful.
