Jodie Comer has issued her verdict after she received an Olivier Award.
The 30-year-old from Childwall was named Best Actress at the prestigious ceremony for her portrayal of Tessa in Prima Facie. The stage play ran at the Harold Pinter theatre in London last year and follows a high flying barrister specialising in defending people accused of sexual assault.
The powerful one woman play won acclaim as Jodie's character changes her view of the flawed legal system after she is raped and forced to provide crystal clear evidence for a conviction to be secured. The Scouse superstar's powerhouse performance was recognised when she received the prize at the Olivier Awards- considered the Oscars of the theatre world - at the Royal Albert Hall on Sunday evening.
