NATIONAL THEATRE LIVE

Mrs. Warren’s Profession

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

Gan Bernard Shaw

Cyfarwyddwyd gan Dominic Cooke

Mae Imelda Staunton (The Crown), enillydd Gwobr Olivier bum gwaith, yn ymuno â'i merch go iawn, Bessie Carter (Bridgerton), am y tro cyntaf erioed, gan chwarae rhan mam a merch yng nghlasur moesol tanbaid Bernard Shaw.

Mae Vivie Warren yn fenyw o flaen ei hamser. Mae ei mam, fodd bynnag, yn gynnyrch yr hen drefn batriarchaidd honno. Mae manteisio arni wedi ennill ffortiwn i Mrs. Warren - ond am ba gost?

Wedi'i ffilmio'n fyw o'r West End, mae'r cynhyrchiad newydd hwn yn ailuno Staunton â'r cyfarwyddwr Dominic Cooke (Follies, Good), gan archwilio'r gwrthdaro rhwng moesoldeb ac annibyniaeth, traddodiadau a chynnydd.
