National Theatre Live Screening: Mrs Warren's Profession

Written by Bernard Shaw

Directed by Dominic Cooke

 

Five-time Olivier Award winner Imelda Staunton (The Crown) joins forces with her real-life daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) for the very first time, playing mother and daughter in Bernard Shaw’s incendiary moral classic.

Vivie Warren is a woman ahead of her time. Her mother, however, is a product of that old patriarchal order. Exploiting it has earned Mrs. Warren a fortune – but at what cost?

Filmed live from the West End, this new production reunites Staunton with director Dominic Cooke (Follies, Good), exploring the clash between morality and independence, traditions and progress. 

Mrs. Warren’s Profession has opened in London’s West End at the Garrick Theatre. Bernard Shaw’s masterpiece is brought to life in a bold new production that the critics say is ★★★★ 'MAGNIFICENT' (Independent) and ★★★★ 'REMARKABLE' (Financial Times).

★★★★★ 'DOMINIC COOKE’S SWIFT TOUCH DIRECTION DIALS UP THE HEAT… UNDERESTIMATE BERNARD SHAW AT YOUR PERIL' (Broadway World).

National Theatre Live captures the magic of every moment on stage. It lets you get up close, delve deeper and take in the spectacle. No wonder left unseen. Wherever you are in the world, from Tyneside to Tokyo, you’ll find a cinema near you, where your emotions can escape and run freely with the very best of British theatre.
