Five-time Olivier Award winner Imelda Staunton joins forces with her real-life daughter Bessie Carter 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, exploring the clash between morality and independence, traditions and progress.
Cast: Imelda Staunton, Bessie Carter, Kevin Doyle, Robert Glenister, Reuben Joseph, Sid Sagar
