Prima Facie

We're discussing the amazing Prima Facie by Suzie Miller, starring Jodie Comer. This is a brilliant play dealing with sexual assault, with a particular focus on the prosecution of these crimes. We're trying not to give too much of the plot away because it might be coming out on National Theatre At Home, and we don't want to spoil it. The main focus, though, is a young woman with a working-class background working as a defense barrister. She is forced to reconsider the faith she has always placed in the legal system when a colleague rapes her. As we discuss, the play deals head-on with the question of how sexual assaults and the handling of such cases by the courts. It's a tour-de-force performance from Comer, truly, and the play itself is also very interesting in the way it's written.
