Additional Information
About MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION
Mrs. Warren manages a flourishing business, funding her daughter Vivie’s education in the finest boarding schools and universities, while keeping her profession as a Madam a secret. When Vivie, a “modern woman,” comes home to acquaint herself with her mother for the first time in her life, she challenges her mother in a two-woman battle of ideals between upper-class expectations and lower-class realities. In what is one of George Bernard Shaw’s most controversial plays, Mrs. Warren must attempt to reconcile with her disapproving daughter in a story sprinkled generously with sharp comedy and biting social commentary that remains relevant today. https://chemainustheatrefestival.ca/mrs-warrens-profession/
