New photos of Jodie Comer released ahead of Prima Facie tour

Jodie Comer is set to return to her WhatsOnStage, Olivier and Tony Award-winning role in Suzie Miller’s Prima Facie this week, and new portraits captured by Rankin have been released.

The new production will tour the UK and Ireland, beginning at the Richmond Theatre tomorrow, 23 January 2026.

The one-woman drama, described as “an unforgettable moment of theatre” by WhatsOnStage’s Sarah Crompton during its original West End run, follows a criminal barrister named Tessa (Comer) who has her world turned upside down following a sexual assault.
