Woman in Mind (December Bee) is the 32nd play by English playwright Alan Ayckbourn. It was premiered at the Stephen Joseph Theatre In The Round, Scarborough, in 1985.[1] Despite pedestrian reviews by many critics, strong audience reaction resulted in a transfer to London's West End.[2] The play received its London opening at the Vaudeville Theatre in 1986 where it received predominantly excellent reviews.[3]
Woman in Mind was Ayckbourn's first play to use first-person narrative and a subjective viewpoint and is considered to be one of his most affecting works[2] and one of his best.[4]
