Mama Does Derby
Advertisement
A hilarious and heartfelt mother-daughter story.
A single mum, a teenage daughter, and a new life in a regional town where neither quite fits.
It's always been just the two of them against the world, dancing in supermarkets, getting the hell out after the ‘Very Bad Thing’. Now Mum is finding rebellion in the sweaty, radical world of roller derby, while Billie's anxieties are manifesting in unnerving ways.
Windmill Production Company's Mama Does Derby is a no-holds-barred riot of reinvention and reckoning — about falling down, getting back up, and making friends with your demons.
