Mrs. Warren's Profession

November 14, 2025

Real-life mother-daughter duo Imelda Staunton and Bessie Carter ('Bridgerton') star in Bernard Shaw's incendiary moral classic.

Vivie is a no-nonsense young woman with ambitions to take up the legal profession. Her mother Kitty has a successful profession of her own—the world's oldest—and a string of brothels to her name. When Kitty visits Vivie, who has just graduated from Cambridge, this secret is explosively revealed.

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. Dominic Cooke directs this smash hit West End production, recorded live and presented in HD.
