Mrs. Warren's Profession
Mrs. Warren's Profession
Hardcover - English

""Mrs. Warren's Profession"" is a play written by the famous Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw. It was first performed in London in 1902 and caused a lot of controversy due to its frank discussion of prostitution and the hypocrisy of Victorian society. The play revolves around the character of Mrs. Kitty Warren, a successful businesswoman who runs a chain of brothels across Europe. Her daughter Vivie, who has been raised in a convent and educated at Cambridge, is initially unaware of her mother's profession. However, when she discovers the truth, she is forced to confront her own beliefs and values. The play explores themes of class, gender, morality, and the role of women in society. It is a powerful critique of the double standards and social conventions of the time, and remains a significant work of modern drama.THIS 88 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Plays: Pleasant and Unpleasant The First Volume Containing the Three Unpleasant Plays, by George Bernard Shaw.
