Wikipedia says it's the least often revived or adapted of Wilde's plays, and I think I can see why; it doesn't quite come together, I think. It has some oft-quoted lines in it, though I realised afterward that the reason one of them was so familiar was that Wilde recycled it in Earnest.

I have not read or seen Mrs Warren's Profession, but it's been on the list to get around to one of these days.

One less than perfect play out of four is a hit rate most playwrights would envy.

I was lucky enough to see Felicity Kendal as Mrs Warren and she absolutely made the role live.
