      Maya Mehrara Bust Magazine 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. Aug 25, 2022 Full Review Harris Dang The AU Review From the striking set to the compellingly forceful musical score to the virulent yet compassionate writing to Jodie Comer’s towering work as the lead, Prima Facie is a triumph from all fronts. Rated: 5/5 Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Stephen A. Russell ScreenHub Comer delivers a performance for the ages. And through her Wright howls a rally cry for a better, more just form of ‘justice’ that is not built on the best interests of bad men. Rated: 5/5 Jul 21, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

      jd c A-must see! Jodie Comer shines from start to finish. Definitely deserved all the awards she got from this stage debut! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/08/23 Full Review Bethan L Truly an incredible performance full of gut wrenching emotion. Must see for everyone. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/07/23 Full Review Al F Jodie's performance of a lifetime. One incredibly talented, beautiful woman. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/14/23 Full Review patrizialabella A truly stellar performance by Jodie Comer. Be aware that the subject matter may be difficult for some people as it is tackled in a confronting yet realistic way. Set design is minimal but it works perfect for this play. The rain scene is amazing. Lighting and amplification is also brilliantly utilised. But the star is Jodie Comer. She delivers a scintillating performance and is the embodiment all that is wonderful in live theatre. Go see it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/28/22 Full Review regi o Difficult and harrowing but totally excellent - the acting was insanely good, I do not know how Jodie Comer was able to cover so many different aspects of this story, changing personas as needed within her character. Brilliant Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This was an incredible and emotional performance by Jodie Comer. It was so powerful and captivating and successful in portraying such an important message. It's one of those performances/stories I think that everyone should watch so they can truly see how damaging s*xual assaults and r*pe is to the victims. All you ever hear is it will ruin the life of the perpetrator and how it will affect them, you never actually see the damaging affects it has on the victims and I think Jodie really portrayed it well giving people the opportunity to get a glimpse of the victims reality after an assault. Absolutely recommend watching it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
