We all have secrets – unspoken pieces of our lives that we carry in our heads and hearts. Our deepest fears, ambitions, and confessions. PostSecret is an internationally recognized public art project where people confess their secrets on homemade postcards, anonymously. New secrets are posted weekly on the website, which has racked up over half a billion hits. Time Magazine ranked PostSecret as one of the most influential blogs in the world.
PostSecret: The Show
PostSecret: The Show is a stage adaptation that made its Canadian premiere at the Firehall Arts Centre in January 2015. The show is an immersive, poignant journey through the humor and humanity of the personal stories we keep to ourselves, and on rare occasions, share with others. Projected images, videos, three actors and a guitarist guide the audience through crowd-sourced narratives revealing the true stories behind the secrets. See the hopeful, shocking, painful and sexual secrets that brought hundreds of millions to the PostSecret blog.
This wildly successful show is on a 25-stop tour across Canada and US right now and it’s headed to Vancouver. You have a two-week window to catch it at the Firehall Arts Centre (280 E Cordova St, Vancouver) from Feb 17 – March 5. Grab a friend and indulge in the secret lives of others.

Secretly, I spend my time on Twitter because it’s the only place that people admit they are also lost and confused in life. I’m done pretending to be perfect and ready to accept being me.
Whenever I am happy for too long, I demolish my closest relationships, binge on drugs, and have sex with strangers. It makes me feel truly alive, creative, beautiful, and satisfied in a way that happiness can’t seem to.
