I just want everyone to know that I did NOT conduct the interview in the nude--even though I wanted to! RobD strictly enjoined me to stay fully clothed.

Don't you think it could have been groundbreaking? A full-frontal interview on BWW?

Perhaps when I finally get to interview Loretta Swit, Rob will let me go full frontal!

Excuse me, what's the purpose of doing a full frontal interview if all parties oncerned aren't in the buff? It's the latest trend in journalism.

Great article, as always, very well written. Insightful, entertaining and funny all rolled into one. Keep those articles going!!! It makes you want to see the show. Who is the hottie in the middle of the three performers. You should have taken a nudie photo.

Birman Wood--the forest that walks up Dunsinan Hill in MACBETH. It fulfills one of the witches' prophecies.

Yes, the Naked Boys do work harder than most performers on Broadway. I don't think there's another show running in NYC that has as much ensemble work.

It's distressing that their salary in the show isn't even enough to pay the bills, that most of them need a second job. These guys must work hard: they sing, dance, act, and in the nude at that. Why won't the producers pay them more?

Their salaries are determined by the contracts they are working under. Theater Four seats less than 200 people and that factors into the salaries they receive. It seems that the larger their venue, the higher their salaries.

Ba dum bum bum

(sorry. felt the need.)

Lovely interview.
I'm still confused as to why you were all fully clothed.
It seems horribly inappropriate.
I shall bombard RobD with complaintative PMs at once.
Censorship is wrong.

I'm really saving the nudity for my interview with Loretta Swit. Imagine the headline: "HOT LIPS GOES FULL FRONTAL"

Oh, ~FF~, you're being a silly goose! This could start a trend! You can only imagine how the world will react to naked interviews with the likes of Sally Struthers, Marcia Lewis, Joe Pesci, Rea Perlman, Estelle Parsons, Jerry Orbach...and the afore-mentioned Loretta Swit.

Remember, scintillating conversation is the key element here!
