What I liked

The improvised accordion songs based off audience members’ personal anecdotes were so sharp and witty. Chanel has killer stage presence and incredible makeup/costumes. Singing the Blocked song in unison was cathartic.

What I didn't like

I wanted the ending to be a bit more solid… and I wanted them to name names! Haha. But overall, this living piece of theater was gorgeous.

My overall impression

Chanel is a gem!! All The Boys I Blocked is a showcase of musical talent, impressive improv chops, and heart-shattering self-exploration. To know your worth and brilliance in a dating landscape of cruelty and dishonesty is a confusing experience that Chanel captures beautifully. I loved it!
