In Two Minds

Presented by Fishamble: The New Play Company

Dublin Theatre Festival 2023 and Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2024.

Touring in April 2025 to 59E59 Theatres as part of Origins 1st Irish Festival.

Explored through the dynamic of a mother-daughter relationship, In Two Minds is deeply personal, inventive, funny and life-affirming. As a new work it plays with both the fascinating allure and the challenges of living with bipolar disorder. From the stellar writer Joanne Ryan and director Sarah Jane Scaife comes a tale of the adult child and parent sharing the same home. Pom Boyd and Karen McCartney perform a delicate piece grappling with mental health, love and humanity. In Two Minds finds insight in the darkness, humour in the pain and tenderness in difficult family dynamics. ​
