EXPOSED is an experiment in radical honesty as told by your community.

From Denver Colorado, traveling all across the continent, EXPOSED has helped hundreds of people share the stories of what is really happening in the lives of those around us, what we carry with us, and how we are all connected by the details of our lives. These are the stories the other stages can’t handle—the untold stories, the ones relegated to therapists’ offices, now brought into the spotlight.

These are the stories your mom warned you about and your therapists want you to hear.

Join Juice the Trauma Clown as they weave a narrative live on stage between the audience and performers, creating a space designed to comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. A storytelling experience with a host that takes you on a journey and brings levity to trauma like you’ve not seen before.

*18+ Graphic and adult language, use of material not suitable for children, topics can be triggering

“If you are feeling a little isolated in the addictive screen-glow of a post-congregation world, lord do I recommend this confessional for you. “ -Fish Griwkowsky from the Edmonton Journal (Edmonton)

What are people saying about EXPOSED…

“The sweetest punch in the guts.” -Ben Templesmith, Comic Book Artist

“Exposed is a powerhouse of a show which will leave you thinking long after you leave the theater.” Thor from Analog Artist Digital World (Orlando)

“I’ve been to and/or performed on many story telling shows and Exposed is by far my favorite. They clearly put in the time and effort to deliver something that is both highly professional and and wildly raw at the same time. I felt raw and vulnerable for days after experiencing this, and I was only watching! Can’t recommend enough.” -Kyle Pogue, Comedian (Denver)

“I performed in the Denver show, and I can’t speak highly enough about the experience I had, both as a viewer and as a performer. The work I did in this show did more healing for me than years of therapy. Telling my story was more cathartic than any therapy session I have ever had.” -Joshua Robinson (Boulder)
