PADrama Happy Valley was a huge ratings hit for the BBC[/caption]
And he admits that rehearsing for the “massively exposing” nude scenes in A Little Life was awkward.
Norton said he believes society has a block about male nudity.
He told The Telegraph: “We’re scared of the penis . . . what it looks like, its size and its shape. Men, I think, we’re far more obsessed with it.
“Women I’ve asked are like, ‘I don’t care. It’s just a penis, whatever’.”
The play — a hit in New York — is about four pals living there.
It opens at the Richmond Theatre in South West London.
