One of our readers have mentioned NUDITY a new play at the Public Theater. Reader was just not sure if it will be a male or female nudity. I checked and based on the casting notice: the character of 1 Jordan has nudity. 1 Jordan is played by Toby Onwumere from SENSE 8
World Premiere
JORDANS
By Ife Olujobi
Directed by Whitney White
A bitingly funny, wildly imaginative new play by The Public’s Emerging Writers Group alumnus Ife Olujobi, JORDANS is a piercing exploration of assimilation, racial capitalism, success, and survival. At an overwhelmingly white workplace where appearance is everything, a long-suffering receptionist finds herself in personal, professional, and psychic jeopardy when her ruthless boss hires a hip new employee in an effort to improve the company’s image and “culture.” Suddenly, the two young, Black social climbers are forced together and torn apart by their race, ambition, and otherworldly circumstances. JORDANS is a story of identity mistaken, power subverted, and rage unleashed. Don’t miss this bold new play directed by Obie Award winner Whitney White about what it takes to stay on top.

I just caught the show today and unfortunately the only nudity is courtesy of the female lead and NOT the sexy Black male actor pictured here, which is rather unfortunate since the many pairs of tight form fitting pants he donned on the stage teased a very nice 🍑
If you want to see the goods you’ll just have to look at the Sense8 screen caps on his AZ nude page
