When to see Jodie Comer at Birmingham Rep
Prima Facie will be on at Birmingham Rep in Centenary Square from Tuesday March 10 to Sat March 14, 2026.
It features a soundtrack by Rebecca Lucy Taylor from Self Esteem.
A spokesman for the Rep said: "Jodie Comer’s Olivier, Evening Standard, Whatsonstage and Tony award-winning performance in Suzie Miller’s gripping one-woman Olivier award-winning play returns to theatres in a unique and limited 8-week national tour.
"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, with designs by Miriam Buether, lighting by Natasha Chivers, sound by Max and Ben Ringham, video by Willie Williams, and featuring a soundtrack by Rebecca Lucy Taylor (Self Esteem)."
Jodie said: "“It is a huge privilege to return to Prima Facie for one last time and take this important play on tour across the UK & Ireland. The resonance of Suzie Miller’s writing, both in London and New York, exceeded anything we could have imagined.
"I’m so thrilled to have the opportunity to get the team back together and take the production to theatres around the country, including my hometown of Liverpool.
"On a personal note, I can’t think of a better finale to what has been such an incredible and deeply rewarding chapter in my life.”
