'IMMORAL and otherwise improper for the stage' was how Bernard Shaw's play Mrs Warren's Profession was described when it was written in 1894.
Thankfully times have changed and now this sharp, witty critique of social and religious hypocrisy is featuring at Keswick's Theatre by the Lake.
Look on as the relationship between a mother and daughter unravels as protg Vivie Warren, the product of an expensive upbringing and a first-class education, begins to wonder where her mother's apparently inexhaustible income comes from.
For more meticulous relationship analysis, you can also catch Harold Pinter's play Betrayal.
This tense play rewinds the lapsed affair between a woman and her husband's best friend until we reach the evening when it all began.
