First published in 1896, this play is a biting satire of Victorian society and its many hypocrisies. The story follows a group of upper-class women who, despite their professed concern for social justice and human rights, are ultimately more concerned with their own status and comfort. The play's title is a reference to the idea that even those who claim to be free are often enslaved by their own desires and prejudices.
