Mrs. Warren's profession is a play written by George Bernard Shaw in 1894.
"Summer afternoon in a cottage garden on the eastern slope of a hill a little south of Haslemere in Surrey. Looking up the hill, the cottage is seen in the left hand corner of the garden, with its thatched roof and porch, and a large latticed window to the left of the porch. A paling completely shuts in the garden, except for a gate on the right. The common rises uphill beyond the paling to the sky line. Some folded canvas garden chairs are leaning against the side bench in the porch. A lady’s bicycle is propped against the wall, under the window. "

Debates on sex work, labor rights, and women’s autonomy are loud again. The play supplies vocabulary, nuance, and the habit of asking who benefits from moral panic.
