Tessa Ensler has fought hard for her status as a star criminal defense lawyer, and she is proud of her great success. Tessa specializes in defending alleged sexual offenders. Her recipe for success lies in dismantling the credibility of the supposed victims during cross-examination. She is absolutely convinced of the legitimacy of her approach, as she believes in the presumption of innocence and in the judiciary – in doubt for the accused. But one evening after a few drinks with her colleague Julian, with whom she has already been physically intimate, non-consensual sex occurs, and Tessa finds herself in the victim's role. Although she knows exactly how poor her chances are in court, she decides to file a complaint against Julian. She becomes a witness for the prosecution and experiences the courtroom proceedings she knows so well from the other side. – Miller’s award-winning play sensitively and impressively brings to light the patriarchal power of the justice system through a case study.
