★★★★★ “Grippingly confronting theatre” – The West Australian After taking the West End and Broadway by storm, the award-winning Prima Facie written by Suzie Miller makes its triumphant return to Sydney in Black Swan State Theatre Company’s new production, directed by Kate Champion, starring Sof Forrest. Tessa is a brilliant and confident criminal defense barrister who thrives in the courtroom. This is shattered when an unexpected event forces her onto the other side of the witness stand where she has to confront the patriarchal power of the law. Now navigating the system she once championed, Tessa experiences its systemic failings firsthand. The courtroom, where she once wielded power, becomes a site of her tragic disempowerment. With incisive writing and an emotionally gripping narrative, Prima Facie is a courtroom drama that leaves a lasting impact, challenging theatre audiences to consider the profound need for change in the pursuit of true justice.

Uked! is a sing along, string along, immersive jukebox musical, that's more folksy balladeering than an all out, all that jazz razzmatazz.
Following the unedifying edict that "there's a sucker born every minute", the show skewers the modern self-improvement economy in a piss-take parody of today's 'gurus' and snake-oil salesmen.
