DuBose, played Jean Louise "Scout" Finch - the novel's narrator and main character - in the classic 1962 film, a performance that earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress at age 10. Mary Badham, who plays the crotchety Mrs. “I did a version of 'To Kill a Mockingbird' to get my (actors') equity card in Boston, so this is a role that’s always been with me," said Welch, noting that he'd been interested in the role from the moment he heard the show was heading out on tour.

Welch, who was the understudy for Tom Robinson - the Black man on trial in arguably the story's most pivotal sequence - on Broadway, is reprising that role in the touring production.
The touring production arrives at the Des Moines Civic Center, 221 Walnut St., on Aug. The touring version of "To Kill a Mockingbird" continues with performances across the nation scheduled as far out as July 2023. “Right now, we are the American (production of) 'Mockingbird.'" 'How it feels to play an icon' It’s such a good production," Richard Thomas, who plays Finch in the show's touring production, told the Des Moines Register. The New York Times reported that collaborators previously accused Rudin of bullying behavior. Originally, writer Aaron Sorkin's ("The West Wing," "The Social Network") stage adaptation of Harper Lee's classic novel planned to resume on June 1.Īccording to e-mails obtained by the New York Times, the decision seemingly comes from producer Scott Rudin, who - against the apparent wishes of Sorkin and director Bartlett Sher - decided not to remount the New York production. Production closed in January when actor Jeff Daniels announced he was leaving the show. In spite of Atticus Finch's wisdom, the producers of the latest Broadway adaptation of "To Kill a Mockingbird" announced that the highest-grossing American play performed on Broadway wasn't returning. Since hail can cause the rainfall estimates to be higher than what is actually occurring, steps are taken to prevent these high dBZ values from being converted to rainfall.Editor's note: Richard Thomas may not appear as Atticus Finch in "Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird" at the Des Moines Civic Center through Sunday as he is currently out due to illness, Des Moines Performing Arts announced in an email to ticketholders.Įven someone who has a passing familiarity with the work can tell you that it's a sin to kill a mockingbird. Hail is a good reflector of energy and will return very high dBZ values. These values are estimates of the rainfall per hour, updated each volume scan, with rainfall accumulated over time. Depending on the type of weather occurring and the area of the U.S., forecasters use a set of rainrates which are associated to the dBZ values. The higher the dBZ, the stronger the rainrate. Typically, light rain is occurring when the dBZ value reaches 20.
The scale of dBZ values is also related to the intensity of rainfall. The value of the dBZ depends upon the mode the radar is in at the time the image was created. Notice the color on each scale remains the same in both operational modes, only the values change. The other scale (near left) represents dBZ values when the radar is in precipitation mode (dBZ values from 5 to 75). One scale (far left) represents dBZ values when the radar is in clear air mode (dBZ values from -28 to +28). Each reflectivity image you see includes one of two color scales. The dBZ values increase as the strength of the signal returned to the radar increases. So, a more convenient number for calculations and comparison, a decibel (or logarithmic) scale (dBZ), is used. Reflectivity (designated by the letter Z) covers a wide range of signals (from very weak to very strong). "Reflectivity" is the amount of transmitted power returned to the radar receiver.
The colors are the different echo intensities (reflectivity) measured in dBZ (decibels of Z) during each elevation scan.
