Prima Facie Theatre Tickets

Put your legal skills to the test once you buy Prima Facie tickets to see this theatrical performance unfold on the big stage. The original production had its debut at the Griffin Theatre in Sydney, AUS in 2019. Written by Suzie Miller, the story centers around Tessa, a young and successful barrister. When she is sexually assaulted, she is put to the test of challenging the patriarchal criminal justice system. One that she’s worked so hard to uphold. Upon its debut, the play was an instant success.

Not only did it win a Major Australian Writers’ Guild Award in film, television, and theatre in 2020, but it also won a David Williamson Award for Outstanding Theatre Writing of that same year. The play also earned Miller a 2020 Australian Writers’ Guild Award for Drama. Before long, the theatrical production hit London’s West End in 2022. The original UK premiere featured Jodie Comer, an Emmy and Bafta Award winner, in the role of Tessa. Comer reprising the role in the 2023 Broadway production won Best Leading Actress in a Play at the 76th Tony Awards. Anyone looking for a moving performance live on stage should purchase Prima Facie tickets before they sell out.

What makes Prima Facie so unique is that it is performed entirely by one woman. Overall, the play received stellar reviews from across the board. Limelight Magazine gave the production a 4.5 out of 5-star review, stating that it was “gripping” and successfully captured how law can routinely fail rape victims. The Guardian touted it for advocating the #MeToo movement as well. Aside from Prima Facie, Miller is known for writing a variety of other popular works, such as Cross Sections and All the Blood and All the Water.
