If Nicole Nadler could stop being afraid, she could do anything – and maybe so could you? In this unscripted show, you'll share your fears (anonymously), and she'll tackle them with honesty, authenticity, teenage diaries and a determination to conquer her fear of perception. After all, the only thing to fear is fear itself – apparently. Back for her third year at the Fringe (and still winging it), she's ready to bare all. 'Nadler enjoyed 5-star reviews and sell-out shows in 2023. This year could be a flop' (Daily Record).

About the show

Nicole Nadler returns to the Fringe for her third year with Exposure Therapy, an unscripted solo performance in which audience members share their fears anonymously and she tackles them with honesty, authenticity, teenage diaries, and a determination to conquer her own fear of perception. Presented by High Heels and Heavy Suitcases Productions, the show blends performance art and theatre in a live, responsive format at Mint Studio. Running 50 minutes, it is a candid and participatory exploration of fear, perception, and what it means to bare all — still winging it, still turning up.

Why see this show?

An unscripted show that meets your fears with Nicole Nadler's own — live, candid, and entirely unrepeatable. If you want something personal and participatory rather than polished, this is the room to be in.
