Naked Auditions

Is is ever acceptable to be asked to audition nude? Had a weird experience last weekend at an audition and not sure if I over-reacted. There is a bedroom scene in the play apparently - was unaware at the time. Has anyone else had to before for amateur theatre?

The appropriate thing to do at an audition when you are asked to go nude is clearly not go there. punch the sleaze in the face, and let the industry know who to avoid. i believe it is not rare in LA to be asked at an audition, if clothes can be removed. but that is because my actor friends who were involved with those people would later realize that they had appeared in a pornographic film. in your audition experience where u were asked, i believe it was just someone trying to take advantage, and get a perve. Please be careful, you have common sense
