Imelda Staunton makes a welcome stage return in 2025, alongside her daughter Bessie Carter (Bridgerton) in George Bernard Shaw's Mrs Warren's Profession. Once banned for three decades under Lord Chamberlin, Shaw intended the play to address prostitution in the era, and to: "draw attention to the truth that prostitution is caused, not by female depravity and male licentiousness, but simply by underpaying, undervaluing and overworking women", as played out when Vivie Warren (Carter) returns home from university to discover her mother Kitty's (Staunton) true profession as a brothel madam.

The writer behind Cock, Bull and King Charles III, Mike Barlett returns to the West End with this brand-new play, a provocative exploration of polyamory, starring Stephen Mangan (The Split, Episodes), Nicola Walker (The Split, Spooks) as a married couple looking to reignite the spark when they invite a third, Erin Doherty (The Crown) into their lives and their bed. Funny, thought-provoking, and moving, enjoy this strictly adult portrait of a modern marriage.
