I saw him (and others) nude at the foundry when they did All-Male Peep Show last season. The nudity did not disappoint!!! I read this upcoming play, and unless they stray from the script, the nudity will be super brief. Definitely go see it though. All of the shows are outstanding! I have my ticket already!
How was the nudity in All Male Peep show? Did a lot of the actors get nude? Had wanted to see it but couldn’t get down to Fort Lauderdale this year.
It was SO good. Actors were nude and often hard in many, many scenes. During the big strip show scene at the end, they came dancing nude through the audience. Best show ever.
Damn, sorry I missed it! That’s so hot that some got hard! Any particular favorites?
Hey and details about the actors that appeared?
Any details about who the actors were and how they looked naked?
If you google the show, you’ll see a picture of 9 actors in three rows, like the Brady Bunch… All the shirtless ones in that picture had extensive nudity in the show. The show was literally a dream come true for me. They all looked hot AF.
I think everyone on here should write to Ronnie Larsen and tell him the show needs to come back to NYC… especially since it’s set in NYC. It makes me sad though that I never got to experience the male strip clubs in Times Square.
I saw this show at Lincoln Center in 2008. Linda Lavin was in the cast. Mike Doyle from Law and Order played Shane. He was fully nude in that production.
You got any details about how Mike Doyle looked naked? There was a post of the performance but they made them take it down. He’s always been a crush
