Chewing Gum Dreams Reviews

Coel is by turns casually cruel, hilariously funny, naive, wise and vulnerable. Her play tackles some difficult themes, including sexual assault, violence, and underachievement across generations - a serious new talent. * Londonist *
An engrossing, engaging and compelling one-woman show... nothing short of virtuosic. * What's On Stage *
A promising, resilient artist. * Che Walker *
