Our second screening took us to The Black Sheep skate store in Manchester. Pollyanna Ruiz introduced the film, and after the screening local skaters were keen to talk with Long Live Southbank’s Stuart Maclure about the campaign and its relevance in the North West, as well as LLSB’s plans to re-open the previously closed-off areas of the Undercroft.
The conversation was joined by Richard McHugh of Manchester Metropolitan University and Dani Abulhawa of Sheffield Hallam, adding academic and personal expertise in youth culture, urban space and skateboarding to the discussion.
After the screening, speakers and audience migrated to the local Projekts skate park, where Stuart joined the locals for a session!
