★★★★ ‘Imelda Staunton and real-life daughter Bessie Carter are both forces to be reckoned with’
Radio Times
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.
