Mrs. Warren's Profession is a play written by George Bernard Shaw in 1905. The play is a scathing critique of the Victorian era's social and economic structures, particularly the limited opportunities available for women. It tells the story of a young woman named Vivie Warren, who discovers that her mother, Mrs. Warren, made her fortune by running a chain of brothels across Europe. As Vivie grapples with the revelation, she also faces challenges in her own career aspirations and relationships with men. The play explores themes of morality, gender roles, and class struggle, and has been praised for its wit, intelligence, and social commentary. Despite its controversial subject matter, Mrs. Warren's Profession was a critical and commercial success, and has remained a staple of the modern theatrical canon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
