Directed by five-time Olivier Award winner Richard Eyre, My Name Is Lucy Barton is currently playing on Broadway in a production from Manhattan Theatre Club and The London Theatre Company. The production, at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre, began performances January 4 and will officially open January 15.

In My Name Is Lucy Barton, Linney plays Lucy Barton, a woman who wakes after an operation to find—much to her surprise—her mother at the foot of her bed. They haven’t seen each other in years. During the days-long visit, Lucy tries to understand her past, works to come to terms with her family, and begins to find herself as a writer.

My Name Is Lucy Barton was previously seen in London. The original audiobook edition of Strout's novel is narrated by Kimberly Farr.
