gorilla suit
Gorilla suits are full-bodied costumes resembling gorillas. Gorilla suits have been used both to represent real gorillas in film and on stage, and also as a source of humour. The gorilla suit is a popular Halloween and masquerade party costume.
==History==
The early history of the art of gorilla impersonation dates at least to the late 1920s, with the rise of Charles Gemora, an early practitioner of the art in such short films as ''Circus Lady'' and the Our Gang entry ''Bear Shooters''. In later decades, in addition to abounding in the Ape Woman films (consisting of ''Captive Wild Woman'', ''Jungle Woman'', and ''The Jungle Captive'') and B movies such as ''Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla''.
In 1869, Noah Brooks' short story, "Mr. Columbus Coriander's Gorilla" appeared in Bret Harte's "Overland Monthly Magazine." The story concerned a young man employed at a menagerie dressed in a gorilla suit. It is mistakenly credited to Max Adeler.
In recent decades, the work of performers or designers have altered the mechanics and effect of gorilla suits, often using animatronics, taxidermy eyes, realistic fur, and other aides. Jim Henson utilized typical gorilla suits and even a full-bodied gorilla Muppet in several productions (like in ''Time Piece'', ''The Cube'', some episodes of ''Sesame Street'', and the "Avery Schreiber" episode of ''The Muppet Show''). The person inside the gorilla suit is often uncredited. Jim Henson's Creature Shop has contributed to this development in its own way, through work on ''Buddy'', ''George of the Jungle'', and ''MirrorMask''. Many suit performers of Jim Henson's characters portrayed gorillas in other productions.
