My Name is Lucy Barton

A Canadian Stage Production

The bestselling novel, brought to life on stage. 

Lucy Barton wakes after an operation to discover – much to her surprise – her mother at the foot of her bed. They haven’t seen each other in years. During their days-long visit, Lucy contemplates her desperate rural childhood, her adult life in New York, and the state of her relationships as both a daughter and a mother.

Starring renowned Canadian actor Maev Beaty, and directed by former Shaw Festival Artistic Director Jackie Maxwell, this striking one-woman show rings breathlessly true. This haunting adaptation of New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Strout's beloved novel has mesmerized audiences on Broadway and in the West End.
