Ethics and The Theater: “My Name is Lucy Barton” (Online)

Our monthly staged reading and discussion series continues online with Rona Munro’s haunting adaptation of Elizabeth Strout’s acclaimed novel, performed by Pat Debrovner, directed by Susan Horowitz, and narrated by Bonnie Bean:

Lucy recalls her long stay in a hospital for a mysterious illness, which proved a turning point in her relationships with her mother, husband, and children, while provoking memories of her hardscrabble childhood and her escape from it through writing.

Following the reading, Betsy Ungar will lead an audience discussion exploring the ethical issues raised by the play.
