They actually do use adult face actors for the touring dance party shows. I actually much prefer the costumes used in Disney parks. They look more “realistic” and true to the characters. I think most kids would see these are clearly adults, not kids. Especially up close hugging them. On a stage far away, maybe it’s not as noticeable. My daughter did ask once a few years ago why Chip and Dale were the same size as Mickey. We told her that Mickey uses his Disney magic to make all the characters nice and big so all the kids can see them and hug them. She never asked about them not talking but my friends daughter did. She told her if all the super popular characters like Mickey and Minnie talked to all the kids all day long, their throats would be sore. So they are resting their voices. Honestly, most little kids don’t notice things like we do. By the time they start to question it, 7 for my daughter, they are old enough to realize on their own what the characters are anyway.
