Laura Linney will make her London theater debut next June in My Name Is Lucy Barton, adapted from Elizabeth Strout's novel, Variety reported, adding that Theater veteran Richard Eyre will direct. He previously worked with Linney on a Broadway adaptation of The Crucible and in the 2008 movie The Other Man. Rona Munro is adapting the novel as a dramatic monologue. The production will have a limited three-week run at the new 900-seat Bridge Theater.
