Exposed is a powerful, painful but truthful comedic-monodrama that exposes grief for what it really is.

When thirty-something Charlotte suddenly loses her dad to cancer, her whole life dramatically changes. Charlotte invites an audience to observe her therapy sessions to work through grief, heartache, crippling mental health, finding joy, and sharing secrets she’ll take to the grave.

The play begins with Charlotte reflecting on the moment she received the devastating news, as she grapples with the shock and pain, the life she once knew begins to quickly unravel.

Suddenly, everything has changed; Charlotte’s relationship with her boyfriend ends, she leaves a job she loves and moves back to Liverpool in the hope of finding joy. But the shadows and sounds of grief follow her manifesting in anxiety, depression, and a deep sense of disconnection.

As Charlotte confronts her pain, she begins to find a glimmer of hope, knowing that while the sound of grief may never fully fade, it can evolve in to something that helps her move forward and laugh again. This is it…
