Reanna Roane (born 1992) is American actress. She got our attentions when she played in 2016 all-female all-nude Shakespeare production in NY Central Park. Inspired by Mottola’s group the Outdoor Co-ed Topless Pulp Fiction Appreciation Society — yes, the group reads topless in city parks — they thought it would be “exciting” to use nudity in a non-gimmicky, non-sexualized way to tell a good story. “The Tempest,” which is all about freedom and transformation, seemed just the ticket. And while it wasn’t easy to cast, a number of women in their 20s and 30s, Reanna Roane among them, rose to the occasion. “There was something about a naked ‘Tempest’ I liked,” says the 24-year-old, who, as the sprite Ariel, enters in a robe she swiftly removes. “You can do only so many Facebook rants about women’s equality, and this felt like direct action: ‘This is my body, I’m proud of it, and I’m using it to tell a story.’ ” Roane says the audiences at Central Park’s Summit Rock were receptive and even helpful: While she was scaling a hill, one of them whispered, “Watch out for the poison ivy!”
