I am looking for a good fake belly for a one act at a local theater, the budget is small and all the participants are volunteers. We are all new to this and I am not sure how to go about finding good props online. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can make one, that is relatively cheap by taking a piece of green foam, (soft foam) like packing foam, and shaping it. then simply sew cloth over it. Something like spandex or something smooth like satin seems to work well. Add a piece of elastic with a hook and viola!
I am working on a production of Rabbit Hole, and that is how they are making my pregnancy pad.

I was Annelle (Steel Magnolias) at a community theatre with a similar problem. Annelle is quite pregnant in the last scene...

I used a rounded throw pillow and a tight undershirt... it rounded out the edges of the pillow and made it look quite real. I had people asking me during Meet and Greet how far I was along!!

It's all in the walk, too. Anyone can strap on a fake belly, but get someone to teach you to walk the talk!

And, Break a leg!!!
