Sheridan Smith makes a triumphant stage return in a revival of Alan Ayckbourn's 1985 play Woman in Mind, opening in the West End at the Duke of York's Theatre this December, before taking to the road to play in Sunderland and Glasgow in spring 2026. A dark comedy that follows housewife Susan after her reality is split in two after a bump on the head, Woman in Mind is a heartfelt and humourous examination of family and identity, with a psychological twist, with Smith at the helm of an ensemble cast who play the families of her dual realities. Direction comes from Michael Longhurst, with set and costume design by Soutra Gilmour.
