One of the most iconic novels in American literature is making its way to Broadway.

Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is set to debut on the New York stage during the 2017-2018 season.

The 1960 book is a story about a small-town lawyer in the deep South who defends a black man accused of rape.

Oscar-winning screenwriter Aaron Sorkin has been picked to write the stage adaptation.

He's best known for writing the scripts for 'The Social Network' and 'The West Wing.'

Tony Award Winner Bartlett Sher will direct the show.
