Sheridan Smith is returning to the West End<\/a> in The Duke of York’s<\/a> latest production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Sheridan<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The show is a revival of Alan Ayckbourn’s Woman in Mind<\/a>. It will play at The Duke of York’s Theatre<\/a> for a strictly limited run. It then heads to Sunderland and subsequently, Glasgow. The West End<\/a> run is from 9th December 2025 until 28th February 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sheridan Smith will play Susan, a woman who sustains a bump to the head making her world split in two. One is mundane and the other, imagined. As the lines begin to blur, Susan’s search for happiness takes a turn in Ayckbourn’s dark comedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smith is a two time Oliver Award Winner. She is well known fro her work on TV including Gavin and Stacy, I Fought the Law and Cilla to name merely a few. Her appearance in Woman in Mind<\/a> marks her return to The Duke of York’s Theatre<\/a> following her run there in Shirley Valentine last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Micheal Longhurst is directing this production. Longhurst is an acclaimed director, and former artistic director of the Donmar Warehouse. His recent credits include Much Ado About Nothing at the RSC and the Olivier Award winning Next to Normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cast appearing alongside Sheridan Smith are yet to be announced. Keep an eye on LSBO theatre news<\/a> where we will post any updates on the shows further casting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Woman in Mind<\/a> opens on 9th December 2025 and is playing until 28th Febraury 2026 at The Duke of York’s Theatre<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, Stereophonic<\/a> is playing at the Venue and must close on 22nd November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
