Prima Facie

Contemporary play by Suzie Miller, performed by the Westfälisches Landestheater Castrop-Rauxel.

When is sex consensual and when is it rape?

Tessa is a star in the world of lawyers, time and again she manages to box men who have been accused of sexual assault free. She is celebrated, everything is going great. Until she herself becomes a victim.

Suzie Miller's play is currently the most produced theatre text in the German-speaking world. After its premiere in Australia with over 300,000 spectators online, not only did this disturbing play begin its triumphal march, but also a broad debate about where the boundary lies between consensual sex and rape.

Admission price: 22,- Euro
