This is not your mother’s talk show. The Bed Show is a site-specific, site responsive, LGBT-friendly live talk show devised by Hana Mastrogiacomo, Sean Pollock, and Jon Schuta. This bed-show-in-a-bag is 50% autobiographical, 50% found text and 100% all real material of all things related to bed-culture. Sean and Jon cover everything from bed horror stories, the mattress industry, sleeping disorders, to their relationships to beds, love, and intimacy. Audience participation is strongly encouraged! It’s the sleepover party you never knew you wanted.

“We all sleep. We all have lifelong relationships with our beds or where we rest. This is an immersive storytelling experience: part talk show, part sleepover, and all an unforgettable experience. Our show is an intimate, one of a kind, powerful lens into how we see our experiences and relationship to beds, sleep, and intimacy. Weaving together and developing these stories has been a completely unique and exciting process.”

— Hana Mastrogiacomo
