Picnic: The Shirtless Show


'My shirts awful dirty, ma'am....'
Hal Carter

 I know there's more to William Inge's Picnic than just the shirtless Hal Cooper, but the role, and the torso, tends to get the most attention.  That's why the cat of the Antaeus Theatre Company's production, used it front and center in the promotion of their staging of the play.  The video does a great job of showing off the abs and attributes of the actors in the play, but is also really well done, and really funny.


'Poetic realism, wry humor and a surging erotic charge… intelligently gripping
