Background The title was originally chosen for a play Ayckbourn was writing in 1994, but which was replaced by another new play, '' Communicating Doors''. Ten years later he used the title for this very different play — following the practice of rescuing redundant titles first employed by Ayckbourn for ''Absurd Person Singular'' back in 1972.Alan Ayckbourn, Preface to Three Plays (''Absurd Person Singular'', ''Absent Friends'', ''Bedroom Farce'') (1977) Penguin As with ''Absurd Person Singular'', ''Private Fears in Public Places'' has little in common with the play for which its title was first devised.
