Jodie Comer stuns audiences in Prima Facie, a play about how the justice system views and handles sexual assault cases.
In an age where women’s rights are being negotiated, threatened, and in some cases revoked entirely, Jodie Comer’s astonishing performance in the recording of the play Prima Facie is incredibly relevant and timely. Named after the legal term “prima facie” which means that there is enough evidence to establish something as fact until proven otherwise, this play explores how sexual assault cases are handled by the justice system. In the wake of the SCOTUS’ overruling of Roe v.
Throughout the play, Comer’s performance is almost manic, as she is constantly re-arranging the set to accommodate her needs as an actress and tirelessly darting across the stage this way and that throughout the show. She is full of boundless energy, showing incredible emotional range as she transitions from a persuasive, confident lawyer to a shattered woman who is trying to pick up the pieces of her life.
ADVERTISEMENT Prima Facie hits cinemas worldwide from 21 July with @estreetprods! More screenings will be added soon.— National Theatre Live July 8, 2022 Overall, Prima Facie is enthralling, sickening, horrifying, and inspiring. Comer’s magnetic performance hooks us in and refuses to let go, while the statistics about how often sexual violence occurs and how little justice is served makes us queasy and frightened.
