Hey there! Tomorrow I have to become Prof. Alvin Smedgy, big game hunter and lecturer for a theatre class I'm taking. I want to get the cheeziest safari type character that I can. I already have a pith helmet, monocle, vest, khakis, boots, etc.

The only thing that I'm missing is a moustache! We're not allowed to do makeup for this presentation (I present a monologue)so I'm looking for some quick ideas on how to make a fake moustache. I've got black paper, vaseline, and stuff like that.

Thanks for any ideas!!!

Colt

If you don't mind a really cheesy mustache, you can make one from tag board. Just draw the shape you want on black (or whatever color) tag board, then add two little "prongs" or "tabs" positioned at the top of the 'stache that look like large commas, with a rounded tip that will be inserted into the nostrils and pinch the septum part of the nose. It should work.
