Memphis Hosts Free Premiere of Relatable Comedy Pilot 'This Really Happened'

Memphis Gears Up for Unique Screening of “This Really Happened”

Memphis is buzzing with excitement as the city prepares for the premiere of a new pilot called This Really Happened. This delightful project, created by local talents Kallen Prosterman and Olivia AbiAssi, brings a unique twist to the dating scene that many can relate to. Set to screen at the Malco Paradiso on Friday, October 18, at 3:30 p.m., this film is based on an incredibly relatable real-life experience. And guess what? It’s free to enter!

A Film Born Out of Love and Laughter

So, how did this intriguing concept come about? Kallen Prosterman, a proud Memphis native, found herself in a rather awkward situation: she was dating the same guy as Olivia AbiAssi. “I was dating this guy who was also dating this woman, and once she and I put the pieces together, we quickly came up with this idea,” Kallen shared with enthusiasm. Talk about a plot twist!

Rather than letting the experience turn sour, the two women channeled their feelings into creativity. The result is a screenplay that promises to deliver laughter, heartbreak, and the relatable intricacies of modern dating. “This Really Happened” highlights the often-comical and complicated world of relationships, showcasing how shared experiences can lead to unexpected friendships.

The Premiere: What to Expect

If you’re a fan of comedy or simply enjoy a good story, this premiere should be on your calendar. The screening will take place at the Malco Paradiso, a well-loved venue located in the heart of Memphis, and will start promptly at 3:30 p.m. While the event is free, it’s essential to arrive early as seating is limited, and you definitely won’t want to miss out!

The film promises to deliver a blend of humor and honesty that many can appreciate, as Prosterman and AbiAssi draw from their own experiences and observations to craft relatable scenarios. This Really Happened serves as a reminder that even the most chaotic experiences can give way to creativity and connection.

A Celebration of Community and Local Talent

This premiere is not just an opportunity to enjoy a film; it’s also a celebration of the local arts scene that Memphis is proud of. With nearly 40 local journalists dedicated to covering important stories in our community, shared events like this show just how vibrant and welcoming Memphis can be.
It’s not just about film; it’s about culture, art, and the friendships that arise amidst the messiness of life. So why not take the time to support local talent? You might just find a reflection of your own experiences in the stories told on screen.
