What is the show about?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The George Bernard Shaw play explores the estranged relationship between Mrs. Warren and her daughter Vivie who studies mathematics at Cambridge University. Mrs. Warren is a product of that old patriarchal order. Exploiting it has earned Mrs. Warren a fortune and paid for her daughter\u2019s expensive education \u2013 but at what cost? Vivie is modern woman and doesn’t know how her mother made her money. Mrs. Warren’s Profession<\/a> challenges ideas around class and a woman’s role in society accordingly. Its critical discussions on the hypocrisy and corruption of the English class system was certainly confronting. Therefore, its frank and controversial subject matter led to it being initially banned for 30 years by Lord Chamberlain following its publication in 1902. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
