Can anyone tell me why, in "View from the Bridge" on Broadway, Rodolfo (Russell Tovey) takes off his shirt toward the end of the play?
I know why the producers would want the actor to strip--Tovey has developed an impressive body, as shown in phots--but what's the *character's* motivation? The video at the NewYorkCityTheatre site seems to show his brother Marco also gets shirtles w/ him.
The video is available at http://www.newyorkcitytheatre.com/theaters/lyceumt... and here's a scene shot: http://www.theguardian.com/stage/2015/nov/12/view-...
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/11/23/losi... doesn't give an answer, but it does offer illumination, in particular about the director, Ivo van Hove.

Directors don't always insist on a "motivation".
I saw the 90's version of the play on Broadway (with Treat Williams, Alison Janney, and Brittany Murphy), and I don't recall that it included this "shirtless" moment, but that doesn't mean anything.
