I'm curious to peoples thoughts on this. I have seen overweight men dressed as Frank to see the show and I have seen photos of overweight Franks in amateur productions, but usually Frank is different. Many men who have played the role have been very small framed and I was curious as to what everyone here thinks. So can Frank be overweight or not?

More cushion for the pushin'.

Surely it's all about attitude and performance, so size doesn't need to be an issue. I quite like the idea of a strong, female Frank, but that might just be me...

Totally agree about attitude being the key ingredient. And let's remember Frank's motto: Don't dream it. Be it. I hope their performances rock.

I've seen no end of Frank's of all shapes and sizes over the years. There's no reason why he shouldn't be bigger than average. The main thing is that the actor can play the role, and play it well. Some big women wear corsets and look fabulous why shouldn't a big guy?
