Mrs. Warrens Profession, a provocative play by George Bernard Shaw, first graced the London stage in 1902, only to be quickly banned after two performances due to its controversial themes. The story revolves around a former prostitute turned madam who grapples with her estranged daughter’s disapproval. Shaw compellingly argues that prostitution stems not from moral failings but from economic necessity, while also critiquing the hypocrisy of a society that profits from illicit trades yet condemns them. This tension between societal values and personal choices made the play a target for censorship, as it dared to expose the sordid underbelly of affluence. - Summary by Phil Chenevert and WikipediaCopyright Comedy and Fairy Tales アート エンターテインメント・舞台芸術 戯曲・演劇
