Gayle Rankin originated the part in Cabaret and then went Full Monty in the Mystery of Love and Sex. Her costar (forget his name) also did in Act 2.
Midori Francis is naked in a couple of scenes in Usual Girls. Nudity aside, this performance shouldn’t be missed.
Her Wolves cohort Susannah Perkins was naked in The Rape of the Sabine Women. Interestingly, she was there supporting Midori the night I saw the show. (She won’t have time now that she’s in Network)."
Wait, how much nudity is there in Usual Girls? Is it like everything? I was thinking about seeing it with my parents.

What do you mean by anachronistic hair style???

Okay, I’ll play:
Full frontal:
Lee Pace (Angels in America)
Cast of Naked Boys Singing
Partial/backside only:
Alan Cumming (second revival of Cabaret)
Kit Harington (Doctor Faustus - London’s West End)
Austin P. McKenzie (Spring Awakening revival)
I think that “covers” it.

Michael Urie frontal in Angels.
Adam Driver frontal and back in Angels (was naked from behind but you saw all his junk)
Pablo Schreiber in Desire. He was also naked from behind in the tub but lifted his leg so you saw all his business.
Veanne Cox bared all in some play at Rattlestick.
Patricia Clarksons boobies in Elephant Man.
Mike Doyle full nudity in New Century.
Lea Michelle’s boobies and Groffs bum in SA.
Will Swensons dinger in hair. He also straddled my chair arms so his taint was in my face.
Tons of dingers, boobs and bushes in Hair.

I don’t want to spoil it, but you see every- and I mean every - inch of Midori. There’s also a fantasy rape sequence involving children (played by adults). Depending on your relationship with your parents, this could be a very awkward play to see with them.

Just saw TKAM and remembered I saw Gbenga Akinnagbe full frontal in Fulfillment at the Flea Theater. He had a scene where he was jumping on his bed hitting the ceiling with a broomstick while naked. All I can say is DAMN.
Susannah Flood was also topless and she did some more topless work in The Effect at Barrow Street. There was a lovely scene where the play blacked out and when the lights came up she and her costar were in a naked embrace at the foot of the stage. When I went back to see it at the end of the run, I was disappointed to see that scene had been cut.

Pubic hair removal didn't really become a thing until like twenty years ago. Passion takes place in the 1860's. I guess no one told Ms. Leigh that or she just didn't care because she had a landing strip.

Really? Lee Pace in Angels of America, but frankly, so what. We all got the same stuff, so does it really matter?

It matters to some people here. He’s by far the biggest name in the cast so it’s interesting he’s the one who gets naked.
Also people should see this play, it’s very entertaining. Although if you have strong feelings about race it could be triggering.

Why couldn't you just skip over the thread instead of riding into the conversation on a high horse?

Posted: 11/22/18 at 1:29pmSpeaking of high horses, Lee Pace’s high horse is pretty impressive.

Marin Mazzie in Passion
Daniel Radcliffe in Equus
Alastair Brammer in Miss Saigon
Jarrod Emick in a tour of The Full Monty
The was a woman who briefly bared her funbags in Airline Highway, but I don’t remember her name. Also the random guys who mooned the audience in Kiss of the Spider Woman and the naked guys who ran out of the showers in South Pacific.
Just remembering you've had an "and"
When you're back to "or"
Makes the "or" mean more than it did before

I saw an off-Broadway production of Tis a Pity She's a Whore where Amelia Pedlow and Matthew Amendt both went full-frontal and full-back and since it was an off-Broadway theater it was very small and I was sitting in the front row and could see that Amendt in a very steamy moment was flaccid. Ok. There's my naked onstage story.

I think it would have been more awkward (for everyone) if he wasn’t flaccid. Lol
A friend heard an interview with one of the actors in Afterglow. He said it was pretty common for at least one of them to become noticeably aroused during the performance. One night it happened when his mother was in the audience.

Amanda Seyfried in “The Way We Get By”
