Starring Tony Award Winner Elizabeth Ashley, by George Bernard Shaw and directed by Keith Baxter.
June 8-July 11
Sidney Harman Hall
Washington, DC
“There are no secrets better kept than the secrets everybody guesses.”
Originally banned from the stage, Mrs. Warren’s Profession scandalized audiences upon its debut. The world of the idealistic Vivie is turned upside down when she learns that her family’s considerable wealth comes from her mother’s management of a chain of brothels. Is Mrs. Warren’s profession an outrageous moral failure or a paragon of female achievement? STC favorite Elizabeth Ashley (The Little Foxes, Sweet Bird of Youth) returns to Washington to play the resourceful Mrs. Warren. Director Keith Baxter’s comedies have been hailed by the Washington City Paper as “splendiferous” (Lady Windermere’s Fan) and “hiccup-inducing hilarious” (The Imaginary Invalid).
