'That’s One Damn Sexy Ape' By Gavin Roach - Cast Application 
Show Synopsis: 

Bubo is a proud, strong and stoic gorilla. He is the pride of the Zoo. Its main attraction. Visitors come in waves to gaze upon his majesty and mystique.

But when a series of chilling events tarnish his unblemished reputation, drastic measures must be used to win back the public’s favour.

With a sultry new ad campaign and a cast of over-the-top characters, hilarity ensues as Bubo is pushed and pulled into an arena, he is not only ill-equipped for, but one that he never imagined he would shine so brightly in.
