I hope it makes Mr PCN’s job less stressful, albeit less entertaining to hear about over the dinner table.

Which means I HAVE to ask: How do you know about these things?

About number 2, though? I think Robert Downey Jr. can bypass that rule by now, can’t he?

All joking aside, and understanding that the situation is obviously awkward, what reasons have actors given for wanting to disrobe for an audition?

Orrrr, taking a ketchup packet and smearing it on your shirt as blood in order for things to appear more “authentic” for your scene?

Orrrr, stopping halfway during your monologue, crossing your legs and exclaiming “I’m sorry, I have a bit of a nervous bladder. Can you excuse me?” and running out of the audition.

I don’t suppose those would work either, would they. And all THOSE are true stories too! [don’t ask me how I know…just…don’t!] lol 😉

I can tell you stories, Mr. Leopard13! I can also tell you that no matter how attractive the actor/actress, disrobing only comes off awkward, not sexy.
