Suzie Miller’s multi-award-winning play, Prima Facie, is headed to Birmingham next spring.
The gripping one-woman show, which features a critically lauded performance from Jodie Comer, comes to Birmingham Rep Tue 14 Mar – Sat 14 Mar 2026.
Prima Facie follows the story of Tessa, a young, brilliant barrister who has worked her way up from working-class origins to become one of the most respected names in the law profession.
An unexpected event forces Tessa to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.
Speaking about the show’s latest run, Comer 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.”
Suzie Miller adds: “I couldn’t be more thrilled about the Prima Facie 2026 tour; this play has already achieved more than we all could have dreamed, and Jodie’s commitment to the story reaching so many new venues and communities means more people can be part of the conversation, and the solution.”
