After a sold-out season on London’s West End, Griffin Theatre Company’s original production of Suzie Miller’s award-winning tour de force commences its much-anticipated national tour.
 
Acclaimed actor Sheridan Harbridge commands the stage as Tessa, a criminal lawyer who knows the law permits no room for emotion. To win, you just need to believe in the rules. And Tessa loves to win, even when defending clients accused of sexual assault. But when she finds herself on the other side of the bar, Tessa is forced into the shadows of doubt she has so ruthlessly cast over others.
 
Prima Facie is an indictment of the Australian legal system’s failure to provide reliable pathways to justice for women. It’s a work of fiction, but one that could have been ripped from the headlines of any paper, any day of the week.
A must-see.
