PRIMA FACIE

Suzie Miller

• •Director - Inese Mičule

The solo performance, created based on S. Miller's play "Prima Facie," delves into the impact of court decisions and the way women are regarded as witnesses in court after a humiliating, life-changing, and brutal experience.

Tessa is an outstanding lawyer who has built her career in criminal defense through sheer determination. She is driven by a belief in an individual's right to a fair trial, and above all else, Tessa loves the thrill of getting clients acquitted. It seems that everything is going well for Tessa, and she is even being considered for a new prestigious job. But when a date with a charismatic colleague goes wrong, Tessa discovers that the rules she has always played by may not protect her, forcing her to question everything she has ever believed in.
