2025-11-11 00:00 - 2025-11-22 23:59 | Theatre Royal, Sawclose, Bath, Bath & North East Somerset, BA1 1ET, United Kingdom
Aaron Sorkin’s riveting, award-winning stage adaptation of the seminal American novel about racial injustice and childhood innocence became a Broadway and West End sensation with star-studded sell-out seasons on both sides of the Atlantic. Now this thrilling courtroom drama embarks on a UK & Ireland tour for the very first time.

Acclaimed stage and screen actor Acclaimed stage and screen actor Richard Coyle (Heads of State, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Fantastic Beasts and Player Kings) returns to this iconic production of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird as Atticus Finch, reprising the role he played to great critical acclaim in the 2022 West End Production. Encouraging kindness and empathy in his children, Atticus is pushed to the limits of these qualities himself when he resolves to uncover the truth in a town that seems determined to hide it.

Set in 1934 Alabama, To Kill a Mockingbird was inspired by novelist Harper Lee’s own childhood and has sold more than 45 million copies worldwide. It won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature and was long at the top of the banned book lists.

With peers such as Ian McKellen and Trevor Nunn, Derek is a founding member of the National Theatre and was invited to be a member of the Birmingham Rep. Derek is an enormous talent with Shakespeare running through his blood, having starred in almost every Shakespearean play, notably in Hamlet and Othello, two of the greats.

A career spanning six decades and so many screen favourites – I, Claudius, Gladiator, Last Tango in Halifax, The Crown, The Day of the Jackal, Nanny McPhee, Gosford Park and The King’s Speech to mention just a few of his triumphs. And let’s not forget, his audio book work, which includes In The Night Garden for the BBC children’s series, another huge hit. There is no doubt that Derek has an incredible body of work.

Richard Clifford is an actor and director. Richard has appeared in films such as Much Ado About Nothing, Love’s Labour’s Lost, Frankenstein and Murder on the Orient Express (all directed by Kenneth Branagh), My Week With Marilyn and Justice League, as well as TV such as The Crown and It’s A Sin. Theatre credits include Amadeus at Chichester and Henry V in the West End. He has directed productions at Washington’s Folger Shakespeare Theatre for over 20 years.
