Mrs. Warren's Profession is a play written by George Bernard Shaw. The story revolves around a young woman named Vivie Warren, who discovers that her mother, Mrs. Warren, has made her fortune by running a chain of brothels. The play explores the themes of morality, social class, and gender roles. Vivie, who has been raised in upper-class society, struggles to reconcile her newfound knowledge of her mother's profession with her own beliefs and ambitions. Meanwhile, Mrs. Warren defends her actions as a means of providing for herself and her daughter, and clashes with Vivie over their differing views on the role of women in society. The play is a commentary on the hypocrisy and double standards of Victorian society, and remains a classic 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.
