Skate Hard, Turn Left

Prepare to fall hard…This is roller derby. A female sporting community built on sweat, speed and fierce ownership is growing at a phenomenal pace. In sports halls all over the UK, skaters are redefining what it means to be a woman in sport. Taking up space. Taking charge. A revolution is happening and it’s happening on wheels. Skate Hard, Turn Left is a collaboration between theatre makers and skaters – a tough, tender exploration of space, gender and resistance. Directed by Jemima James (Complicite), the company collide this explosive, progressive sport with devised political theatre.
