First Look: Woman in Mind Starring Sheridan Smith and Romesh Ranganathan at Duke of York’s Theatre
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.
