My first year in the theater program, I had to take a class called voice and movement, our prof was fabuloulsy gay and dating the chair of the dance dept. Because of this our prof used alot of floor exercises from his partners modern dance class. Now these exercises focus on the pelvic reigon as the center of the body so there is alot of rolling and thrusting going on. as if this isn't hard enough for a freshman class to get used to, a couple of weeks into the semester there was a day affectionaly referred to as" pelvis day" by all the upperclassmen.
On "pelvis day" Michael our professor would come to class in his usual tight black tank top and swet pants and begin demonstrating the days exercises, during the exercise in which we were supposed to lie on our backs knees bent lifting our pelvisis to the cieling, he would strip off his sweat pants to reveal a unitard (with no dance belt or anything holding him in) and begin to demonstrate the exercise. Saying something like "i'm over it, so get over it right? right. Anyways you can imagine the held back sniggers and jeers it really does take a special breed of person to be a theater major.
