Gingold Theatrical Group's Project Shaw, under the leadership of Artistic Director David Staller, kicked off its 12th Season when it presented its 120th concert presentation with Shaw's 1893 comedy Mrs. Warren's Profession on Monday, January 16 at Symphony Space's Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theatre (2537 Broadway at 95th Street). Scroll down for photos!
What price is independence in an age before women had rights? In Mrs. Warren's Profession, an estranged mother and daughter wrestle to answer that question on a hot summer weekend. This most controversial of Shaw's plays boldly tackles issues still vibrantly in current debate: roles of men and women in society, finance, sexuality, family dynamics, and most surprisingly, prostitution.
The cast of Mrs. Warren's Profession features J. Smith Cameron (Mrs. Warren), Talene Monahon (Vivie Warren), Victor Slezak (Sir George Crofts), AJ Shively (Frank Gardner), Bill Kux (Praed), Paxton Whitehead (Rev. Samuel Gardner). Irish Repertory Theatre Artistic Director Charlotte Moore is the Narrator.
