Excerpt from Ezine Number 56, November 23, 2003

Review of "To Kill A Mockingbird"
 
Not the movie nor the novel, but a stage performance by the 7th Grade Enrichment Class of Homewood Middle School. What makes this a little different is that the stage script  was adapted from the novel by some of the students. With an interesting choice of key elements this version provides a balance of character expositions and cultural situations as a backdrop to highlight some serious adult subjects.
 
While it would be fair to say all the performers would need to be 'seasoned' with some more experience, they did maintain a professional attitude by staying in character and continuing with their lines while some of their peers in the audience were unruly (during an afternoon performance).
 
Giving a good portrayal were Emelie Sara Tonitis, Frank Hand, Tyler York, Saanyol Suswam, and a notable performance by Katrina Brown
 
"To Kill A Mockingbird"  Thursday November 20, 2003 at the Homewood High School Baily Theater
Directed by Karen Narro, produced by the Seventh Grade Homewood Middle School Enrichment Class
