About the Author
Inua Ellams: Born in Nigeria in 1984, Inua is an internationally touring poet, playwright, performer, graphic artist & designer. He is an ambassador for the Ministry of Stories and has published four books of poetry: 'Candy Coated Unicorns and Converse All Stars', 'Thirteen Fairy Negro Tales' 'The Wire-Headed Heathen' and '#Afterhours'. His first play The 14th Tale was awarded a Fringe First at the Edinburgh International Theatre Festival and his fourth Barber Shop Chronicles sold out its run at England's National Theatre.

Reviews
It feels like a very contemporary piece which will resonate with young people and which could easily be linked to current events and news for literacy events. * Teaching English *
