'We're all failing a generation of boys, and therefore we're failing a whole generation of girls.'

Jessica Parks is smart, compassionate, and a true maverick at the peak of her career as a London Crown Court Judge. The system needs to change, and she's challenging it one case at a time.

Behind the robe, Jessica is a loving wife, a supportive parent and a karaoke fiend. But when an incident involving her son threatens to blow the family apart, she finds herself having to fight for everything she holds dear.

A scalding examination of modern masculinity and motherhood, Inter Alia premiered at the National Theatre, London, in 2025, with Rosamund Pike as Jessica. Written by Suzie Miller and directed by Justin Martin, the production reunited the team behind the global phenomenon Prima Facie, which won Best New Play at the 2023 Olivier and WhatsOnStage Awards.

Inter Alia transfers to Wyndham's Theatre in the West End in March 2026, and is nominated for Best New Play at the 2026 Critics' Circle Theatre Awards, with the winner to be announced in March.
