Outdoor Theatre: Mrs Warren's Profession

Mrs Warren's Profession is a provocative play that premiered in 1893. Controversial subject matters that challenged prevailing moral attitudes of the time, led to it being banned until 1902.

Delving into the complex relationship between a mother and her daughter as they grapple with issues of morality, social expectations, and the economic constraints faced by women in the Victorian era, Shaw's sharp, witty observations and biting, social commentary make Mrs Warren's Profession a thought-provoking classic that is decades ahead of its time.

This production is sponsored by the Shaw Society, a charitable organisation dedicated to promoting the legacy and appreciation of George Bernard Shaw's contributions to literature and theatre. The collaboration between SHAW2020 and the Shaw Society underscores their commitment to keeping Shaw's legacy alive and engaging modern audiences with the enduring themes embedded in his work.

July 26 and 27 2024. The performance starts at 6.30pm and ends at 9.00pm. Tickets are £22 per person.
