Why not just hire someone who is the right shape who can do it? The height requirement (under 5'3") is also a ridiculous in my opinion. I gotta say that I do 8 shows a week dancing(when I got a gig)and 3 miles plus on the elliptical 5 days a week and am still not a 10. So don't give me that an actual PLUS-SIZE girl can't do the role.
It's a bit annoying to go and watch a padded girl dancing around and nothing on them moves. I walk and my boobs move. It's just not very realistic. Also one of the current understudies who I happened to work with before her bway bow is a size 4. The new standby, can't think of her name but she was great, was definitely not a 12. Short and not thin does not equal fat.
