Public Nudity?!

I have agreed to something that maybe either brave or stupid. I'm not sure which. The lady who taught the burlesque classes I took a few months ago, asked for volunteers for a new project; Naked Girls who Read. It's pretty much what it says it is. Women read selected works out loud, to an audience. So I will be reading things, naked. It combines 3 of my biggest issues. Social anxiety, stage fright, and body issues. I'm a fat girl and in general I agree in women having a positive body image and all. But the idea of sitting in a room of about 30 people, all looking at me naked, while giving a public reading...nightmares are made of these situations. This will either help these issues a great deal, or drive me totally bonkers. I'm going to be using my burlesque name Capt. Booty, I'm going to be wearing a big frilly pirate hat and boots....and nothing else. Although I am playing with the idea of wearing body paint and glitter.
