About TOP SILK
For Jane Fredericks, the fight for justice is personal. As a passionate legal aid solicitor, Jane risks everything to help an old flame, and her world quickly unravels — both in the courtroom and at home.
Her husband Trevor, a prominent barrister, faces his own ethical conundrum: defend a powerful media mogul to advance his career or protect his integrity.
David Williamson’s trademark wit, paired with Mark Kilmurry’s sharp direction, delivers a funny, fast-paced cross-examination of moral dilemmas, family dynamics, and the true cost of success.
