Prima Facie at Sensemble: A solo performance that makes the justice system tremble

A courtroom as a moral minefield: Suzie Miller's award-winning one-person play "Prima Facie" conquers Augsburg. In Sensemble, the stage experience condenses into an electric theater atmosphere, where language, body, and light struggle for truth. An evening about power, law, and conscience – precise, gripping, uncompromising.

The Case File Tessa: From Defender to Plaintiff

The protagonist Tessa, a brilliant criminal defense attorney, undergoes a radical shift in perspective. Miller's dramaturgical architecture leads from a triumphant plea to the intimate vulnerability of trauma. The direction sharpens every pause, the acting precisely depicts the friction between self-assertion and system logic. Thus, a monologue becomes a resonance space for societal responsibility.

Stage Design, Light, Acoustics: Forensic Precision

A reduced stage design transforms into a bearer of evidence: a table as the witness stand, a chair as a test of credibility. Cool, courtroom-like lighting moods tip into pulsating shadows as memory presses. The acoustics work with gentle delays, as if the space breathes – every syllable a blow against the wall of doubt.

Deeply Effective Dramaturgy

“Prima Facie" dissects legal routines and makes tangible how burdens of proof shape bodies. The production follows Miller's precise rhythm: fast-paced forensic rhetoric breaks into quiet, cutting moments of truth. Thus arises a contemporary drama that does not preach but gets under the skin – a lesson in empathy and a magnifying glass on blind spots of the law.
