Dr Who: I've actually seen something similer on tv, if you can belive it. Saw a program about foot binding in China, they mentioned a playhouse where teen boys were used to play the female roles. In order to simulate bound feet they had shoes much like you described. One former actor said they had to wear them for at least 10-12 hours a day, essentially walking in ballet heels.

Unfortunatly I saw the show before I had a DVR. Dang
