Agreed.
I've acted in a few independent films, and for two of them, I had to disclose any health issues that could potentially lead to me not being able to fulfill my contract(s). In one of them, not being able to show up for my shoot dates would have led to wasted money in equipment rentals and paychecks for crew (most of the crew/cast are on deferred payment should the film get distributed, but there were some personnel costs related to equipment usage).
I imagine for a broadway show, especially one that's developed/produced around the notoriety of the main actor/actress, there's a huge potential for large financial losses should someone not be able to perform. (If you watch Glee, this week's episode dealt with something similar.)
