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, a reluctant sister/PA and a trend-chasing agent, 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?
