 A Shoggoth on the Roof | MetaFilter
July 15, 2003 3:37 PM "A Shoggoth on the Roof," a musical theater adaptation of HP Lovecraft's work, was set to be staged this fall by Chicago's Defiant Theatre, but the production has been scrapped due to legal threats by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, the creators of "Fiddler on the Roof".
Since the adaptation is obviously a parody, which thanks to 2 Live Crew is protected speech, it seems that Bock and Harnick don't have a legal leg to stand on, but a small theater company doesn't have the money to fight it out in the courts, even if they're right.
I think that it'd be great to see a crowd of HPL freaks in New York get into a big shoggoth costume or dress up as deep ones, and stage a mock protest outside the theater when it opens there.
