Four-time Emmy Award winner, two-time Golden Globe Award winner, three-time Academy Award and four-time Tony Award® nominee Laura Linney returns to Broadway in the American premiere of a haunting new solo play adapted by Rona Munro from the bestselling novel by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout. A sold-out sensation originally produced by the London Theatre Company at the Bridge Theatre in London, Ms Linney was hailed as “luminous” by The New York Times, “genuinely phenomenal” by Time Out London, and the play was “deeply affecting and heartbreaking” by The Observer.

 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 their 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. This spellbinding story is directed by five-time Olivier Award winner Richard Eyre “with a keen-eyed compassion.” – The New York Times. The play had two runs in London, in June 2018 and then again in January and February 2019 at the Bridge Theatre. “I found Laura Linney radiating shadow-streaked sunlight,” the critic Ben Brantley wrote in The New York Times.
