Susan And Lucy: Two Outstanding Heroines Of Alan Ayckbourn / Susan ve Lucy: Alan Ayckbourn’un İki Sıradışı Kadın-Kahramanı

Abstract

Alan Ayckbourn (1939-     ) has an important place among the twentieth century British playwrights. The playwright handles some present-day social problems such as insensitiveness, lack of communication, lack of love, collision, alienation, moral degeneration especially around his heroines. Susan, the protagonist of Woman in Mind, and Lucy, the little heroine in Invisible Friends, are among the outstanding heroines of the playwright. The life experiences of Susan and Lucy reflected from the stage of Ayckbourn is considerable to understand the place of the woman in the modern society and to be able to observe social and familial problems of her. Because the playwright, who believes that he has social responsibilities, knows that the women all over the world have similar social and familial problems and he constructs his plays inspired by these global problems. This work provides to get to know both Alan Ayckbourn, a very experienced theatre man, and to evaluate some of the social problems of the women that they experience in present-day through the heroines of two different plays of the playwright.
