When Susan suffers a head injury, her perception of reality fractures. She begins to inhabit two parallel worlds—one grounded in the disappointments of everyday life, the other an imagined realm of idealized family and affection. As the boundaries between the two worlds blur, Susan’s struggle to distinguish truth from illusion intensifies, exposing questions of identity, memory, and escape.

This revival is directed by Michael Longhurst (Constellations, Caroline or Change; former Artistic Director of the Donmar Warehouse) and stars two-time Olivier Award winner Sheridan Smith. Written by Alan Ayckbourn, one of Britain’s most prolific and celebrated playwrights, the production revisits his 1985 play with a cast and creative team recognized for their significant contributions to contemporary theatre.
