Much like his theatrical contemporaries Ibsen and Strindberg, George Bernard Shaw wasn’t afraid of challenging the audience and broaching serious subjects – especially the way money and class plays a big part in the dynamics between men and women. In Mrs Warren’s Profession (which is directed by Jonas Cemm), what starts as a comedy of sorts evolves into an in-depth exploration of the relationship between commerce, the ‘real’ choice available to women and whether ‘morality’ is a luxury for the destitute.
