Eep! We Made a Boo Boo!
Occasionally we at What’s Happening find ourselves in a pickle. To report the news of HTG Hollywood as much as we desire, sometimes we have to put ourselves out on a limb. Usually we stay up there, publishing an article on something true and newsworthy. At other times we fall from that branch, missing our mark and making an error. On Sunday we made a mistake. We’d like to own up to it.
We reported on the 11th that Baseball Mogul Productions might be working on an all-monkey adaptation of Tennessee William’s play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Our investigation was cursory and not up to snuff. It turns out that Pedro and the gang at BMP are not working on the chimp-cast CoaHTR.
“It was just too good to be true” remarked a Happening staffer when the truth was discovered. “Stanley Kowolski is one of the most dynamic characters in fiction. Can you imagine a chimpanzee portraying him? It would have been too exciting for words. Perhaps something so perfect was never meant to be.”
Pedro’s several releases include the current Grand Theft Dog and this weekend’s Are You There, God? But no monkey movie. We at Happening wish to express our regrets to Pedro and anyone associated with Baseball Mogul. We hope that your future films are as good as expected and that you can forgive us for this transgression.
However, if you do decide to make a monkey-fied adaptation in the future, please let us know.
“Stanley Kowolski?” Go back to Theatre 101, silly Happening staffer.

I forgot to mention before the Streetcar crossover, with one Menagerie scene thrown in. I wrote those things at like 4 in the morning. Sleepy. **shrugs**
