Posted: 11/23/12 at 6:18pmSaw this play this afternoon. Interesting to see this play, as I have never seen a production. Toward the end of the second act, a boxer strips down his shorts, strips down his jock strap and pulls a towel around him as he walks to the showers. Was this ever in previous productions of this play?

Not to my knowledge but it's done so tastefully that I can't imagine anyone getting excited. For the price of a Golden Boy orchestra ticket with a discrete glimpse of male nudity you used to be able to purchase a number of evenings at the old Gaiety and perhaps even the real thing.

Posted: 11/23/12 at 10:16pmInteresting - when I saw the show a couple of weeks ago, this did not happen. Or if it did - I totally missed it!

You see a rear view as the guy walks to the shower. It takes up 3 seconds of the 2 hour 58 minute running time. It takes place in the middle (2nd of the 3) acts.

Posted: 11/24/12 at 2:25amIt was odd, and pointless. I guess it made the point of like "no women allowed" sort of thing that they kept hounding on about. But honestly this goes back to the whole show being over-designed. There's no need to have that shower in the show and to have working water, etc.

Posted: 11/24/12 at 10:03amwell, it was a slow quiet strip and then he walked behind the frosted glass brick wall and turned, faced the audience and pretended to shower, you could the dark patch through the glass - it was pointless, as there were no other scenes in the locker-room where men were of various stages of undress - it was just an odd sudden event of background detail that wasn't there before - that behind though would bounce a quarter for sure

Sometimes things happen accidentally.
When the Marx Brothers were doing "Animal Crackers" on the Broadway stage, there was an incident.
There is a scene where Harpo's character, The Professor, enters. Margaret Dumont's character, Mrs. Teasdale, says, "Take the Professor's hat and coat." Groucho's character, Captain Geoffrey T. Spaulding, says, "And send for the fumigators."
At this point, they take the Professor's hat and coat and he's standing there in his boxer shorts. Everybody looks startled.
Harpo had a place near the theatre where he played poker with his buddies. He had it perfectly timed so he could leave his card game and be on stage precisely on cue. Well, on this particular day, he hit a re light, which delayed him.
Harpo enters.
"Take the Professor's hat and coat."
"And send for the fumigators."
Off come hat and coat, and voila, there is Harpo onstage in nothing but his jockstrap. Of course, everyone looked startled, but since they were supposed to look startled, he didn't know anything was wrong until his dear brother wandered to center stage and announced:
"Tomorrow he's not wearing anything, so get your tickets early."

Posted: 11/25/12 at 4:30pmWhere were the bare buns in Crybaby? I saw it a couple of times in previews and can't recall. Sad, since all those chorus-type boys were quite fetching.
