First-look production photos have been released for Alan Ayckbourn’s psychological comedy Woman in Mind, which begins a strictly limited West End run at the Duke of York’s Theatre until Saturday 28 February 2026.

Sheridan Smith takes on the role of Susan, joined by Romesh Ranganathan as Bill in his West End stage debut. The cast also features Louise Brealey as Muriel, Tim McMullan as Gerald, Sule Rimi as Andy, Chris Jenks as Tony, Safia Oakley-Green as Lucy, Taylor Uttley as Rick, plus Katie Buchholz and Michael Woolfitt.

Directed by Michael Longhurst, this spellbinding revival explores one woman’s fractured reality with heart and humour. When Susan sustains a bump to the head, her world splits in two—one mundane, one imagined—and the lines begin to blur.

       

Following its West End run, Woman in Mind will tour to Sunderland Empire from 4–7 March 2026 and Theatre Royal, Glasgow from 10–14 March 2026. Tickets are on sale now.

The creative team includes set and costume design by Soutra Gilmour, lighting by Lee Curran, sound by Paul Arditti, and casting by Jim Carnahan CSA and Liz Fraser CSA.
