I get what you're saying.

Musical theatre is choreographed to take this into account - something I hadn't really appreciated before, seeing only the hard work of rehearsal and from a performing side.
Bending and crawling and furious dancing do happen, but not at times when real belting out is needed. Makes sense - her choreographers don't need to work within the same boundaries. Both look effortless, but one is carefully planned to fit around real singing and the other is planned for maximum visual effect.
