All the while when she is doing this she builds a wall in front until she is no longer visible. Shortly after completing the wall she steps out from in front of it naked and the wall becomes a projector screen. This is effectively the curtain call so she was on stage, full frontal, for a minute or two but then we viewed her on the screen, walking out the backstage area and exiting the theatre via steps at the back onto the South Bank which is a major tourist area of London. She then ran out of shot waving to passers by. There was a great ‘double take’ from one lady in particular who clearly wasn’t expecting to see a naked performance artist run by. To be honest I’m not entirely sure why the nudity was in the show. She did mention that she wasn’t as comfortable getting naked as she got older but to be honest the nudity, while fun, did seem slightly tacked on.

I managed to find photos from a preview of this as well as a promo image. Wish there was video!
