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.

Tremendously affecting...This delicate memory piece resonates with the soaring vitality of a fully lived-in present – The Hollywood Reporter
When Lucy says, with a satisfaction that’s bigger than happiness, that “all life amazes me,” we feel exactly what she means – New York Times
