Gingold Theatrical Group's Project Shaw presents MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION, Bernard Shaw's legendary play about women's rights, on Monday, May 20 at 7pm at The Players Club (16 Gramercy Park South) in Manhattan. David Staller produces and directs.

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 features Harriet Harris (Rodgers + Hammerstein's Cinderella) as Mrs. Warren; Amelia Pedlow as Vivie Warren; Richard Easton (The Coast of Utopia) as Sir George Crofts; Matt Doyle (The Book of Mormon) as Frank Gardner; Tony Sheldon (Priscilla, Queen of the Desert) as Praed; Lenny Wolpe as Rev. Samuel Gardner. Roma Torre of NY1 narrates the evening.

Now in its eighth year, Gingold Theatrical Group's PROJECT SHAW made history in December 2009 as the first company ever to present every one of Shaw's 65 plays (including full-length works, one-acts and sketches).

David Staller produces and directs all of the PROJECT SHAW readings.
