Rough Justice – Southport Dramatic Club

A Courtroom Drama – Directed by Michèle Martin

Rough Justice is a gripping courtroom drama, in which James Highwood, the host of a popular television programme, Rough Justice, which highlights miscarriages of justice within the legal system, finds himself accused of the murder of his handicapped child. During his trial at the Old Bailey he decides to conduct his own defence, admits responsibility but pleads manslaughter. His claim that the jury alone is responsible for the verdict brings him into conflict with the judge, and facing him as prosecutor is the formidable Mrs Casely, QC – a well-known Catholic pro-lifer.
