Presented by: Adelaide Festival

Renowned for its original work for young audiences and families, Windmill Production Company brings us a hilarious and heartfelt mother-daughter tale that smashes up against the rough and radical world of roller derby. Real players. A live band. Take a seat, trackside.

At 16, Billie is stuck. The pressure of growing up and holding it all together is weighing on her. To make matters worse, she and her mum have moved to a regional town and need to make their own fun. It’s always been just the two of them. Them against the world. Now, Mum’s not responding to this ‘being still’ business. She’s spiralling through her own rebellion, until she finds her freedom... in skates and sweaty elbow pads.

Co-created by Clare Watson and Virginia Gay, Mama Does Derby is a story about stacking it and getting back up. Featuring athletes from Adelaide Roller Derby League, this is theatre that hits different.
