Playing as part of WOW London Festival 2023, don’t miss your chance to see this exclusive, one-off screening of Suzie Miller’s award-winning play, starring Jodie Comer (Killing Eve) in her astonishing West End debut.

Tessa is a young, brilliant barrister. She has worked her way up from working class origins to be at the top of her game; defending; cross examining and winning. An unexpected event forces her to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.

Prima Facie takes us to the heart of where emotion and experience collide with the rules of the game.

Justin Martin directs this solo tour de force, captured live from the intimate Harold Pinter Theatre in London’s West End. After sold out runs in cinemas across the UK, Prima Facie is back on the big screen for one night only as part of the WOW - Women of the World Festival.

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion led by WOW Founder Jude Kelly, with Helena Kennedy KC, Kate Parker and Danielle Manson, who'll give their perspectives on the play.

Helena Kennedy has been at the Bar for 50 years and is one of Britain's most distinguished lawyers, spending her professional life giving voice to those who have least power within the system. Kate Parker is the Founder of the Schools Consent Project, the official fundraising partner of Prima Facie during its West End and Broadway run, and Danielle Manson assisted the creative team with their research for the play, including facilitating the time they spent at the Old Bailey. She has since launched a project aimed at exploring whether (now in its 20th year) the Sexual Offences Act 2003 deals appropriately with issues of consent and reasonable belief in consent.

This screening is made possible with the kind support of Empire Street Productions and National Theatre Live. A donation from each ticket sold will go to support The WOW Foundation’s work.
