Naked on stage

She's actually a percussionist. She plays the timpani in this show. Ballet might have been a secondary skill or she just learned it for this show, since in the beginning the non-musicians are playing instruments and it sounds horrible.

She is a serious percussionist. I did learn her name and am subscribed to her YouTube page. She's not famous or anything but she's pretty experimental. Although not naked or even sexy. It's purely music (if you consider percussion to be music, since a lot of snobs say drummers aren't musicians).

What a weird thing to say. As others have pointed out, she’s not a professional dancer but a professional musician. Artists being naked on stage is, however, not a low point in their career. This is not a sleazy nude show for the pleasure of horny men, but a serious work by renowned professionals, and countless other stage actors, dancers and musicians have performed nude in serious productions.

She does list Carta on her CV for theater work. So she's not necessarily ashamed of participating in it.
