Following consecutive 4* runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and London, Chameleon celebrates its finale in Manchester. With dry wit and existential dread, our autistic heroine plunges headfirst into an identity crisis questioning whether her all-consuming relationship is worth losing herself.

???? ‘Chameleon does a great job from the start in highlighting just how inclusive theatre can be… The writing is razor sharp and filled with compassion’ – Love London, Love Culture

???? ‘The performance is nothing short of spectacular…I found myself forgetting to write notes, being drawn into their story, holding back my tears’ – EdFringeReview

???? ‘Jess Telling’s writing is vulnerable and emotive, dealing with sometimes overwhelming thoughts that that might go through an autistic person’s head’ – EdFringeReview

????‘Chameleon shines a light on the vulnerability of autistic women seeking validation and intimacy.’
