Unattended Baggage Presents The World Premiere Of THE BED SHOW

THE BED SHOW will make its world premiere on Friday, June 1st; Saturday, June 2nd; Friday, June 15th; and Saturday, June 16th. There will be two showings a night at 7pm and 9pm. The show runs seventy minutes in real Brooklyn and NYC bedrooms. The address for the show will be released upon ticket purchase. The show is devised by Sean Pollock, Hana Mastrogiacomo and Jon Schuta. Tickets can be purchased online for $20 at https://thebedshow.brownpapertickets.com .

The Bed Show is a site-specific, immersive talk show devised by Hana Mastrogiacomo, Sean Pollock and Jon Schuta about "bed culture" that is half autobiographical and half found text. Audience participation is strongly encouraged! Sean and his co-host, Jon, cover everything from bed horror stories, the history of beds, the mattress industry to personal relationships to beds, love and intimacy. This is not your mother's talk show.

"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 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
