If you haven’t seen Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer in her West End debut Prima Facie, now is your chance.
If you saw Jodie Comer play the international assassin Villanelle in Killing Eve, you’ll be aware of her incredible range.
Now, the actor is showing off her talent in Prima Facie, an award-winning play by the Australian lawyer-turned-writer Suzie Miller.
Prima Facie is a monologue exploring the subject of sexual assault through the eyes of Tessa, a barrister who has worked her way up from working class origins to the top of her field. However, when Tessa becomes a plaintiff in a rape trial, she finds herself far less in command of the law than she is used to.
Comer's London run of the show ended on 18th June at the Harold Pinter Theatre, and is set to go to Broadway in spring 2023.
But if you can't wait until then, don't worry: National Theatre Live will be broadcasting the play from the Harold Pinter Theatre to cinemas worldwide very soon. Here's everything you need to know.
National Theatre Live will be broadcasting Prima Facie from the Harold Pinter Theatre to cinemas from 21st July 2022.
We can't wait! And neither can Comer, judging by her latest comments.
Speaking about the NT Live broadcast, she said: “I am delighted that our production of Prima Facie will be available to watch in cinemas across the world."
She continued: "Alongside our ticketing initiatives this is another way that we can make sure that this play is accessible to anyone that would like to see it.”
A host of London's cinemas will screen the show including ODEON, VUE, the Barbican Centre, and more.
