Tessa is a young, brilliant barrister. From working class origins, she has reached the top of her game. An unexpected event forces her to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.
From the striking set to the compellingly forceful musical score to the virulent yet compassionate writing to Jodie Comer’s towering work as the lead, Prima Facie is a triumph from all fronts.
★★★★★
Comer delivers a performance for the ages. And through her Wright howls a rally cry for a better, more just form of ‘justice’ that is not built on the best interests of bad men.
