Jodie Comer’s (Killing Eve) Olivier and Tony Award-winning performance in Suzie Miller’s gripping one-woman play returns to cinemas.
Tessa is a young, brilliant barrister. She has worked her way up from working class origins to be at the top of her game; defending; cross examining and winning. An unexpected event forces her to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.
Prima Facie takes us to the heart of where emotion and experience collide with the rules of the game.
Justin Martin directs this solo tour de force, captured live in 2022 during a sold out run at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London’s West End.
Jodie Comer won at the Olivier Awards, Tony Awards, WhatsOnStage Awards,
Evening Standard Theatre Awards, The Stage Debut Awards and more for her
performance in Prima Facie.
Prima Facie won Best Play at the Olivier Awards
