Photo Flash: First Look at MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION at Seattle Shakespeare Company

Confronting the truth locks two unconventional women in a battle of wits and wills when Seattle Shakespeare Company presents MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION by GeorgeBernard Shaw. Directed by Victor Pappas, MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION will play at the Center Theatre at Seattle Center now through April 10, 2016. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Although written in 1893, audiences in London had to wait over 30 years for a public performance of MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION. Productions were either banned or shut down due to the candid discussion of prostitution that takes place in the play. Self-sufficient and sharp, Vivie Warren benefited from opportunities not available to her mother, Kitty Warren, who pulled herself out of the slums of London with grit and guile. When they meet after many years apart, the long-kept secret of Mrs. Warren's financial success comes to the surface. As Vivie comes to grips with the truth about her mother, she faces hard choices of her own. In a world that can force you into some questionable choices, how do you move forward and remain true to yourself?

Bobbi Kotula makes her Seattle Shakespeare Company debut as Kitty Warren. Emily Chisholm (The Servant of Two Masters) returns after several years to play Vivie Warren. Richard Ziman (Hamlet) will Sir George Crofts, Robert Shampain (Macbeth, 2001) will play Mr. Praed, Trevor Young Marston (Titus Andronicus) will play Frank Gardner, andTodd Jefferson Moore (The Comedy of Errors) will play Reverend Samuel Gardner.

Tickets to MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSION are available now through the Seattle Shakespeare Company Box Office at 206-733-8222 as well as online at www.seattleshakespeare.org.
