The National Theatre: Prima Facie
Tessa is a young, successful defense attorney who has worked her way up to the top of the game; cross-examining, defending, and winning. Everything seems to be going her way.
But one evening she is suddenly thrown into a situation where she must put the system to the test. She who was invincible is now fighting the biggest battle of her life to find her way out of the same shadow of doubt that she has previously cast over others. "Prima Facie" takes us to the difficult point where life meets the rules of the law.
"Prima Facie" is thought-provoking, brutal and moving. A play that stays with you long after the curtain has fallen.
The play has received numerous awards and has triumphed in London, New York and on stages all over the world. With the Riksteatret and the Nationaltheatret, audiences on 45 stages across the country have the opportunity to experience this moving and timely performance where they live.
- Prima Facie – a (Latin) legal term meaning apparent or at first glance.
