Just a heads-up that "Torn Out Theater" (who put on that spectacular nude all-female production of "The Tempest") are at it again in August, this time with a mixed gender production of a 17th century play "The Rover". I've researched the play, and it has at least 6 speaking roles for women, so hopefully there will be something of interest for OCC-ers..

To me these productions are a Holy Grail of public and stage nudity thrown together:

1. It's FREE
2. It's in broad daylight
3. It couldn't be more public (no walls at all)
4. There are 8 separate performances over 2 weeks!

All we got from "The Tempest" were (mostly) "officially-sanctioned" video snippets and pics - let's hope that this time at least one person in a city of 8.5 million people will take some sneaky-cam vid/pics and share them with us! Dayam, if I didn't live on exactly the opposite side of the world I'd be there every performance - in the audience with a discrete mini-cam, or sitting on a park bench 50 metres away and zooming in, or using a helmet or bike-mounted Go-Pro..

Our friend TOONCES apparently got some good video and offered to share it with us (even asking for advice on how to do so - I suggested Mega), but a few members got so taken up with "legal argument" about filming in public places, that it seems he lost interest! And I don't blame him - BUT I do hope that one day he will have another go at sharing with us..

And wouldn't it be great if that Goddess MxAxRxIxSxAx was cast again!
