Barred

Step into Tudor Chambers. It’s got addiction, abuse, drugs, financial ruin, scandal and violence. And that’s just the barristers.

Tamika starts at Tudor Chambers full of hope and idealism – only to be confronted by some harsh truths about the broken criminal justice system and the integrity of some of her colleagues.

Barred is a contemporary thriller about a young black barrister trying to establish her career. She believes the law is a wonderful thing: “It’s freed slaves and humbled tyrants.” The problem is the Head of Chambers believes the law is simply a machine for making as much money as possible: “Justice doesn’t come into it.”

The stage is set for an epic clash of people, values and ambitions.
