Killing Eve actress Jodie Comer is to tour the UK and Ireland with her Olivier and Tony Award winning performance of Suzie Miller’s Prima Facie.
The production, directed by Justin Martin, will open at Richmond Theatre, Richmond Upon Thames on Friday 23rd January 2026, and then tour to a further eight venues, across Dublin, Edinburgh, Cardiff, York, Bath, Canterbury, Birmingham and Liverpool.
Tickets for the tour go on sale on Tuesday 25 March 2025.
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.”
The actress plays Tessa, a young, brilliant barrister who loves to win. She has worked her way up from working class origins to be at the top of her game; prosecuting; cross examining and lighting up the shadows of doubt in any case. An unexpected event forces her to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.
The original production at the Harold Pinter Theatre won an Olivier award for Comer and then a Tony when the play transferred to New York.
Playwright Suzie Miller said she was thrilled audiences around the UK would also be able to enjoy the work.
“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.”
