Ugly Virgins – The Blue Room Theatre

The latest roller derby season’s arrived and a motley crew of skaters find themselves out of luck, out of practice, and out of a team. Tossed together in the reject pile, the unlikely gang gear up to find their feet before they fall on their face. They’re not here to play nice, and they’ve got the scars to prove it – mostly ones you can’t see.

From the superstars behind A Region Where Nobody Goes and Toast comes Ugly Virgins – a wheels-to-the-wall tournament of fun, fear and fury.

Check it out at The Blue Room Theatre from June 15 and find out more here.
