The Naked Truth

Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park has been slowly but surely bringing back in-person performances in the Marx Theatre this Spring, with limited engagements featuring nationally recognized theatre artists. 

“We are thrilled to be re-opening the Marx Theatre and re-entering the realm of live, in-person performances in more than a year,” says Artistic Director Blake Robison.

Next week, The Skivvies take to the stage. The Skivvies: Live and Literally In-Person! features Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley, singer/actor/musicians, performing stripped down arrangements of eclectic covers and eccentric originals. Not only is the music stripped down – cello, ukulele, glockenspiel, melodica – but the Skivvies literally strip down to their underwear to perform.

The Skivvies’ Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley.

Cearley and Molina were last seen at the Playhouse in 2019’s You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown, and Cearley previously starred as Seymour in the 2017 production of Little Shop of Horrors.

The Skivvies were born in 2012, when they became YouTube sensations with their unique covers of artists like Robyn, Carole King and Rihanna. The videos led to live shows, and now this “musically thrilling”, undie-rock, comedy-pop duo continues to perform to sold-out audiences in New York and beyond. Nominated for “Show of The Year” for the 2015 MAC Award, The Skivvies have won praise from The Wall Street Journal to Out Magazine.

Seating in the Marx Theatre has been reduced for proper social distancing to a maximum of 30 percent capacity. Masks are required.

The special event series in the Marx Theatre is presented by Schueler Group.
