The Briefing … Norvill testifies in Rush defamation case
Actor Eryn Jean Norvill has told a Sydney court that actor Geoffrey Rush groped her onstage during a rehearsal of King Lear.
Giving evidence at the Federal Court on Tuesday, Norvill said Rush groped her breast and hip during a preview performance in 2015. Norvill said Rush’s behaviour “couldn’t have been an accident”, and that she “felt belittled and embarrassed and I guess ashamed” by it.
