Between this and her upcoming nudity-filled role in Netflix’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover, I’d say Ms. Corrin is soon to become a favourite of this forum’s!

Went to see Orlando last week. Managed to get a front row seat for £10! Emma Corrin was terrific throughout. Sadly only 1 scene of real note. Halfway through (when she changes from a male to female) she was topless but with her back to the audience. However, from where I sat, I had a clear side view of her right breast & nipple when she turn her head to speak to the audience. For the next 5 minutes she wore a sheer top so her boobs were clearly visible through the material.
The play itself was interesting - but not worthy of the 5* some newspapers have given it. Emma was excellent as was Deborah Findlay as her dresser. However the whole thing didn't quite work for me. In terms of nudity alone its probably not worth the brief glimpse. As a play & for £10 it was great value for money and worth seeing.
