Summary

Starring four-time Emmy Award winner and Academy Award nominee Laura Linney and Tony Award nominee Jessica Hecht, Summer, 1976 is an intimate and insightful exploration of friendship, ambition, and the struggle for independence.

Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Auburn, this critically acclaimed Broadway hit chronicles the lives of two young mothers as they forge an unlikely bond during the summer of America’s Bicentennial. As the days heat up, they navigate a tumultuous relationship and discover how friendships define us, divide us, and permanently alter our sense of ourselves.

A fully immersive listening experience and a must-hear for theater enthusiasts everywhere, Summer, 1976 is a deeply moving portrayal of the small moments that can change the course of our lives.

Thelma and Louise

I wished the performance had finished at the point where the two women/children went off into the sunset together … good performance though :)

Absolutely LOVED it!

I’m so glad this was released through Audible as I’d never get the opportunity to see the play in person. Laura Linney and Jessica Hecht are as brilliant as you’d imagine and the characters are rich. It’s funny, thoroughly entertaining and just gently heartbreaking. Will definitely listen again
