The play is set in Susan and Gerald’s garden, although Susan imagines her garden to be MUCH larger with a lake!

A sharp and darkly comic exploration of identity and escape.

Woman in Mind delves into the life of Susan, a woman trapped in a mundane reality but drawn into a vibrant fantasy world of her own creation. As the lines between illusion and reality blur, Ayckbourn masterfully weaves humour and heartbreak in this poignant tale of longing, self-discovery, and the complexities of the human mind.
