THUNDER THIGHS is a teen comedy-drama set against the backdrop of roller derby, an energetic sport played on roller skates that prides itself on being inclusive. When THUNDER THIGHS are forced to work together to save their derby team—a chaotic group of lovable misfits and queers—their biggest battle isn’t on the track, it’s with each other. Written by TV writer and performance artist Krishna Istha (Sex Education) and directed by NYT alum and Co-Founder and Creative Associate at Mischief Theatre Nancy Zamit.
StoryFest 2025 is sponsored by STUDIOCANAL and Urban Myth Films.
We would also like to thank Microsoft for their support of StoryFuture; our principal supporters Arts Council England as well as all of NYT's Centre Stage Supporters, Investors in Talent and Friends.
