Back to the era of striped blazers, boaters and jolly good cross-dressing, this much-loved farce is in three acts and written by Brandon Thomas.

Through a series of mishaps the aunt can't make their much anticipated luncheon and her

Scout Finch lives with her brother, Jem, and their widowed father, Atticus, in a sleepy Alabama town during the Great Depression. Scout is about to experience the dramatic events that will affect the rest of her life. Her father, a lawyer, is defending a young "Negro" wrongly accused of a grave crime. Since this is causing such an upset, Scout wants to know why he's doing it. "Because if I didn't," her father replies, "I couldn't hold my head up." Harper Lee describes the play as "a love story, pure and simple: love for the South, a father's love for his children and their love for him."
