If you need help with the magic mirror...When I played the Beast and created, designed and built the magic Mirror and it was one of the highlights of the show that a lot of audience member's loved.
I can help you there. I think the entire mirror with supplies and whatnot maybe cost a little under 50 dollars to make (though as I made it I went through several changes so it's probably less)

Huh. Our Beast made it too.
If you need help with the Rose, I can tell you how we worked it(I came up with the idea to work it and some other people made it)

Alright sounds great! Funny you two should bring the mirror and rose up since I've been wondering about them. I would love to know how you made them, costs, where you got your ideas etc. etc.

Well my idea for the rose was to attach fishing line string(you know, it's clear colored so it won't be seen by the audience?) to each petal and slip it through the stem. We built a base attached to little stool with a black tablecloth over it and a techie underneath, ready to pull the petals. by manipulating the strings, the petals would "fall" and he would yank them all at once to bring them back up. We'd put a vase over the top to hide the strings and it worked like a charm.
As for the mirror, we had a wooden mirror with a hollow base to hold a tiny flashlight that would light up the back for the audience's pleasure with tiny lights around the edges.

I had an idea that the rose could be some sort of clock on the top of the Pro arch, and the hands could be roses on stems and it's kinda like a count down.

The easiest way to do the rose (in my opinion) is buy a good looking fake one and pick off all the petals. then put a thin, thin string (that blends with your set) through all of them and make a little winding thing so the beast can "go look at it" and secretly make a petal fall, or something, you know?

Isn't that just what I said?
