Loosely based on the true story of comedian and actor Jordan Gray, Exposure stars Jordan as Grace, an attention-starved reality star desperately trying to remain relevant after the world has moved on.
Grace always knew she deserved to be famous. Her appearance on Sing For the Nation’s Love – the UK’s favourite TV talent show – made her an overnight sensation, accelerated by the story of her gender transition.
The British public created an omnivorous fame monster - soaking up their acclaim, while feeding off the hot potato of identity politics. But reality TV is cyclical - and hot potatoes eventually go cold.
A year on, her fame has plummeted and Grace is left chasing the identity she forged beneath the limelight. How can she convince the world she’s still special when no-one’s listening anymore?
This is a comedy about a woman who has been allowed to define her identity - but not her fame.
Aided by her curmudgeonly but lovable father (Vincent Franklin), a reluctant sister/PA (Selin Hizli) and a trend-chasing agent (Harry Trevaldwyn), Grace will do anything to climb the showbiz ladder and reach the level of fame she knows she deserves. Who needs dignity when you’ve got attention?
