HayXley undresses a bit at a time, first taking off her shirt and pants, then spending a bit of time in a beige bra and plaid men's pajama shorts. After a couple minutes, she finally takes these off, first slipping off the shorts as she sits down on a bed, then taking off the bra, then immediately lying flat on her back on the bed. She then spends about a minute lying motionless fully nude on the bed, then wraps a blanket around herself and sits up. The unfortunate part is that not only is the scene dimly lit, but because she lies on her back, I barely saw anything at all, even though it is a very small theater and I was literally only about 5 feet away from her. I could see that she has large breasts and a full bush, but I couldn't make out any details and it was far from the most flattering angle. Also, the stage is laid out so that it cuts length-wise across the room, and the two halves of the audience sit on either side of the stage. Unfortunately (again), the way that she sat on the bed while she undressed, you're only going to end up seeing either her breasts or her butt. I was on the butt side (not much to say about it: it was a butt), and even then, the undressing happens so quickly before she lies down that you're only going to see them for a split second (again, in dim lighting). So, if you were thinking of going just for the nudity, I would have to say don't bother. But if you're still interested, the play runs for only two more weeks, closing on July 2nd.
(One side note: the male actor has a nude scene at the end of the play where he gets naked and does a goofy dance, to the uproarious laughter of the audience. If that had been done by a woman, it would have been one of my favorite things ever. This scene is also very darkly lit, even darker that HayXley's scene, so you can't really see much of anything.)
