About Little Bear Ridge Road on Broadway

Everything you need to know about the show.

The Story

Four-time Emmy® and two-time Tony Award® winner Laurie Metcalf returns to Broadway opposite Tony Award® nominee Micah Stock in Little Bear Ridge Road, the wry and piercing new play by Samuel D. Hunter (The Whale) directed by two-time Tony Award® winner Joe Mantello. This production marks Hunter’s Broadway debut and Metcalf and Mantello’s seventh collaboration.

Set on the remote edge of a small Idaho town, Little Bear Ridge Road centers on a razor-tongued aunt and her long-estranged nephew who find themselves suddenly back in each other’s lives—two lonely souls with a crumbling house to sell and a tangled history to unravel. Bitingly funny and quietly explosive, Little Bear Ridge Road lays bare our messy, human need to reach across voids for one another, even when it shakes us to the bone.

Critics’ Reviews (5)

A collection of our favorite reviews from professional news sources.

"Even by Metcalf’s lofty standards, this is one stunner of a performance. A beautiful play. In today’s American theater, it’s unique. It is a revelation."

Chicago Tribune

Chris Jones

"Critic’s Pick. The glorious Laurie Metcalf plays one of the funniest and most thoroughly human characters seen lately on a New York stage. One of the most entertaining, too. In Samuel D. Hunter’s keen-eyed and compassionate play, the riveting Metcalf rips into her role."

The New York Times

Laura Collins-Hughes

"Laurie Metcalf gives a performance of unvarnished, plain-spoken beauty. Her remarkably fine performance is flinty, funny, and savagely unsentimental. Little Bear Ridge Road is as moving as it is bruisingly truthful."

The Wall Street Journal

Charles Isherwood

"A jewel of a play. The brilliant Laurie Metcalf is in blazing form in a singularly beautiful piece that shifts almost imperceptibly from acerbic comedy to searing pathos. This is a gorgeous play. Its rewards are as immense as the Idaho night skies"

The Hollywood Reporter

David Rooney

"A hard-hitting, hard-laughing show you leave wanting much more of. A rockstar of the New York stage, Laurie Metcalf is never less than nuclear. Uproariously funny and bruisingly honest"

New York Post

Heartfelt

"The mix of comedy and drama was clearly perfected. Laurie Metcalf’s performances on and off the stage can’t be beat. I would’ve been interested to see more into the relationship with her brother to better understand why she wasn’t available for the nephew in his younger years given the severity of the circumstances. Overall- 100% a success from my view. "

Erica V from New York on Dec 22, 2025

One of the best written plays ever!

"The acting, the writing and flow is perfection! I can’t believe it is closing early. I would see again! "

...

Michele R from Fullerton on Dec 21, 2025

Interesting story with excellent acting

"The play was both sad and extremely funny. The acting was superb. We have seen Lorrie Metcalf before on Broadway before and she is fabulous."

...

Broadway.com Customer on Dec 18, 2025

One of the best plays to come to Broadway

"Best Samuel Hunter play we've seen so far and we have seen three others previously. We lived in Idaho for 16 years. Also enjoyed the movie "The Whale". Laurie Metcalf pushed this play over the top. We are permanent fans of Samuel D Hunter."

Stellar Acting!

"Just give Laurie Metcalf the Tony award right now!! The entire cast was nice but Laurie a standout and in a class all of her own."

...

Tamalon R from East Hartford on Dec 14, 2025

Phenomenal performances and great story

"The story is compelling, funny and moving with phenomenal acting performances. It is an absolute shame that the play is closing early, but I highly recommend the play if someone has the opportunity to see it. My wife and 26 year old daughter loved it as well."

Amazing acting!

"Laurie Metcalf was fabulous as usual. Rest of the cast was great too. Uncomplicated set, no intermission and a solid story. Loved it!"

Broadway.com Customer on Dec 12, 2025

Great ensemble effort

"Laurie Metcalf was mesmerizing. She owned her role. Micah Stock was equally impressive. When a great script is handed to great actors you get 90 minutes of greatness. "
