Cynthia Nixon Goes Full Frontal For Broadway

[jwplayer id="7189237"]

If you haven't seen Cynthia Nixon in the Broadway revival of Margaret Edson's "Wit," then we're sorry to say that the show's run is over. But look on the bright side: we won't be spoiling it for you by telling you that Cynthia dies in the end and as she ascends to heaven, she strips completely naked.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the story (how much overlap is there between Broadway-nuts and Fleshbot readers?), the plot revolves around a poetry professor in the final hours of her battle with cancer. As she steps into the light, she leaves everything behind--hat and hospital gown--and stands naked on the stage for a moment before the play ends. Quite the powerful finish, wouldn't you agree?
