Three years ago, British actress Jodie Comer debuted in London's West End with the one-woman play Prima Facie, a production that earned her the prestigious Olivier Awards for Best Actress the following year. During the award ceremony, the actress from Killing Eve emotionally explained how the play changed her life.
The play revolves around Tessa, a barrister who specializes in defending men accused of sexual assault. Her perspective on the legal system undergoes a profound transformation after she becomes a victim of sexual violence. The role demands intense physical and emotional commitment from the lead actress, requiring her to deliver a high-energy performance with no breaks.
