I am producing Beauty and the Beast for a youth theater. I need some advice on the beast's make-up. I can see that will need to some prothetics and teeth and wig and hair,but how you really get it all together to make it look good. I have never done this level of make-up. Is there a reference book or company that has supplies and detailed instructions?

The scream team is the best! We have used this prosthetic for a show...worked GREAT for 6 performances...all you need is makeup and spirit gum!!

Have a look at this. Did this last February - silicone gel-filled appliances - two piece, wig/headpiece with horns, beard, gloves and the school used matching feet as well. Don't think they show in any of these photos though.
