Inter Alia in London is a thought-provoking legal drama that examines the high-pressure world of a crown-court judge whose private life collides with her professional ethics. Rosamund Pike plays Jessica Parks, a clever and compassionate judge whose career “exists inter alia (‘among other things’)” as she balances home, friendship and professional ambition. The play is written by Suzie Miller (Prima Facie) and directed by BAFTA-winner Justin Martin, working with a creative team including set and costume designer Miriam Buether and video designer Willie Williams. It premiered to critical acclaim at the National Theatre and now transfers to the West End.
In the world of Jessica Parks, being a top-flight London Crown Court judge means enforcing justice day after day. But when a shock event involving her teenage son upends her carefully orchestrated life, she is forced to reconsider how her professional principles measure up against her personal commitments. As the boundaries between her home and her courtroom blur, the question becomes: can one woman have it all?
