Summary: Jenny unexpectedly steps into a Lead Role, and out of her panties....


Jenny was depressed after she had quit her last job. She just could not face her fellow workers after the accident had left her naked from the waist down in the company cafeteria. Jenny’s husband had tried to raise her spirits. After several efforts he said they did not really need her income, but she replied that she did not want to just sit at home. Her husband noticed an ad in the paper for the local theater group, the Woodland Thespians, and suggested that she might help with a play or two to pass the time.

Jenny had played some supporting roles in college and high school plays. The memories of the camaraderie with the other actors, actresses, and stage-hands brought a pleasant smile to her face. The next day, after she saw her husband off to work, Jenny called the Woodland Thespians. She was delighted to hear they were beginning work on a play that evening. Jenny promised she would come by and talk to them.


At 6:30 Jenny stepped into the small theater and introduced herself to the theater co-ordinator, Mr. Gordon. Mr. Gordon explained that Jenny should probably help in on of the off-stage activities until she saw how the plays were produced. Undaunted, she asked if she could help with the costumes. Mr. Gordon asked Jenny to stay and talk to the director at 7:00. Mr. Ewing, the director arrived a few minutes later.

As Jenny introduced herself, Mr. Ewing and Jenny discussed her past acting experience. Jenny said she would be happy to do costuming if she would get a chance to act in some future play. Mr. Ewing said Jenny would understudy one of the roles in the current production. He would get to see her performance during the rehearsals so that he could cast her in the future. He asked her to stay and meet the rest of the cast and crew. Jenny smiled as the others introduced themselves as they arrived. It would be just like old times.

p>The play was a comedy about a group of twenty-something men and women and the troubles of modern day life - somewhat like the TV show Friends. The play was in its last dress rehearsal when Rebecca, the number one supporting actress was in a traffic accident that left her with a broken ankle. Jenny had been the understudy and had rehearsed with a few of the other understudies. Mr. Ewing had said the Jenny’s delivery was actually quite good. Not wanting to delay the production, Mr. Ewing announced that Jenny would take over the role. Jenny was in a bit of shock as she stepped in and energetically performed through the rehearsal. If was not until that last act that Jenny remembered that in the second to last scene, Rebecca was to appear in a short nightgown. Jenny face and ears turned scarlet as she realized how exposed she would be, but refused to back out of the role as she remembered the old saying "The Show Must Go On".

When she changed into the nightgown, the costumer said it would never do. Jenny was both taller and had a much larger chest than Rebecca. The front of the nightgown barely reached Jenny waist and left the tiny pink panty completely visible. Jenny performed the rehearsal wearing the gown and her jeans. The director was not happy. The role required Jenny wear the nightgown through the entire ten minute scene as the gown and Jenny’s role were the pivotal points for most of the conversation. Jenny promised to bring one of her own nightgowns to wear in the scene. The director said that would be fine as long as the gown was no longer than mid-thigh in length.

That night Jenny told her husband about her filling the role in the play. He was delighted for her. As she explained about the nightgown problem he thought about the possibilities. He had planned to attend the play. He thought to himself he might have something more than just her acting to appreciate!

In the middle of the night he got up and worked on the panty that when with the nightgown Jenny had selected to wear in the play. With his modifications he hoped for a truly unforgettable performance.


The play was going marvelously. The first two acts had gotten laughs and applause in many places. The nightgown scene approached with Jenny standing in the wings. She realized as she looked down at the short nightgown that the bright theater lights were probably going to change its usually thin opaque material (as seen in her bedroom) into a somewhat more transparent revealing gown. She fretted briefly but, seeing how well everything was going, she did not want to let down her comrades. She straightened her composure and, on queue, she entered from stage left. A hush settled over the audience that broke after two seconds into cheers and whistles. Jenny refused to look down and see what she was revealing under the bright lights.Her fellow actors recovered and carried on with the dialogue as Jenny maintained character.

It was when Jenny walked across the stage to deliver a smart response to the main characters that her husband’s handiwork took effect. She stopped and stood at stage right. Without warning Jenny’s panty dropped down her legs and settled around her ankles. Jenny froze. If she stooped or bent over to get her panties, she would at least flash her firm butt at the audience. Her freeze broke as laughter and cheers erupted from the audience. Jenny fought back the panic, but some slipped through causing Jenny to stumble on a few lines. The scene finished and lights dimmed. Jenny walked off the stage kicking her panty to the wings. The costumer was waiting for Jenny and handed her the tight jeans and T-shirt for the last scene. Jenny pulled on the jeans, handed the costumer the nightgown and slid the T-shirt over her head. Fortunately, Jenny had few lines in the last scene and was able to stumble through them fairly well.

When the curtains closed Mr. Ewing entered from backstage and spoke energetically. "Wonderful jobs everyone. That was one of our best shows in years. And Jenny, I want you to shorten that sheer nightgown and keep in the part where you lose your panties. It’s perfect, and the audience loved it.!"

Jenny’s head dropped. There were five more performances and in each she would have to suffer the same exposure. Jenny’s felt her blush run down her body with embarrassment. She sighed and tried to smile back at the director as she stammered. "Yes, the show must go on!...".
