A documentary sharing the story of female skateboarders’ courage, friendship and self-discovery will be screened at the Merlin Theatre.
‘Woolf Women: Now or Never’ will be screened on Thursday 18th June. The screening is being hosted by Frome Skatepark Project (FSP) and Frome Town Council, and is raising funds towards the creation of a new skatepark at Mary Baily Playing Field in 2027.
Organisers say, “Following five young women on an epic journey across Europe to the ancient Sumela Monastery in Turkey, the film is part skate adventure, part road trip and part celebration of friendship, courage and pushing yourself beyond your limits.”
FSP’s Kim Martin said, “Come and watch the five young skaters’ amazing adventure while you help raise the funds we need to make Frome’s new skatepark and nurture the talent and potential of generations of young skaters here in Frome.”
The film will be screened at 7pm. Tickets cost £7 and can be bought at merlintheatre.co.uk/class/woolf-women-now-or-never/
