Imelda Staunton stands with arms folded inside a bright floral wreath, as Bessie Carter stands behinds her looking off to the side. Text reads: National Theatre Live. Imelda Staunton. Mrs Warren's Profession. By Bernard Shaw, Directed by Dominic Cooke, with Bessie Carter. A production from Sonia Friedman.

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.
