There's a new reality show in the works, and it promises to fulfill the dream of every man who's ever had a job -- by providing a legal forum for the kicking of a coworker's ass. Almost everything's in place to make this thing happen, except You. Sign up for Office Fight.
The brainchild of NYC's Redline Films, Fight is...awesome: every week, the producers'll take two coworkers who don't much like each other and prepare them to take their animosity from the break room to the boxing ring. Right now, they're searching for pilot combatants, which is where you come in:
Email Redline the name of the person you'd like to maim, and why; beefs can be work-related ("He screwed me for a promotion") or personal (same verb, different object?).
Redline'll come into your office for two days to film you challenging your opponent, and shoot background material capturing the stirring melodrama/stolen French Vanilla creamer behind the dispute.
You'll train for two weeks with a professional pugilist, helping you master techniques like the jab/cross combo, the peek-a-boo stance, and the rare-but-effective defense "Lumbergh's Mug".
You will brawl: 3 rounds, either in a gym, or at your office, assuming there's space, and assuming your company's insurance adjuster is Don King's House of Claims, Appraisals, and TKO Suckah.
To spice up the bludgeoning, the fighters are also asked to make a side bet (involving shame, not cash). Judges'll be selected from among your coworkers -- so if someone erroneously declares you the loser on points, it'll lead to a ratings-dominating cycle of coworker violence for seasons to come.
Email your aggression to sberl@redlinefilms.net.

VOOM!
August 14-15, 2007
8:30pm
at HERE Arts Center
VOOM IS A VILLAGE VOICE DANCE PICK!!!
"Too often what disappoints in watching dance is that it lacks an inside, the living domaine within, in a word, intimacy. But Vangeline's outside is inside... Poetry in motion." - Hampton Fancher
Photo by Alex Romanov
Choreographed and directed by Vangeline for the Vangeline Theater
additional Choreography by Nina Buisson
Featuring: Pamela Herron, Mandy Caughey, Yukari Coco Koyama, Kat Macmillan, Rie Sensui, Maki Shinagawa, Myndy K, Katherine Adamenko, Cassandra , Jorge Vazquez Villarreal, Vangeline
Music by SORIAH, Myndy K of Lucky, Jorge Drexler

Set design by John Vogt
In 2004, Artist Robert Wilson was invited for a residency at the experimental VOOM HD Lab and created a series of high-definition video portraits of celebrities in near stillness. A “Butoh portrait in Motion”, Vangeline Theater’s VOOM rescues the camp, extravagant elements from Robert Wilson’s Voom portraits. A painting come to life, the 45 minute Performance Arts piece borrows from both Japanese Butoh and "Method Go Go" (invented by New York Empress Chi Chi Valenti). An erotic and mysterious Dance portrait of women, VOOM explores Fashion, Beauty, and the darker side of the human heart.

Wednesday 8.1
Going.com presents
Hot Rod FREE Advance Movie Screening
AMC Theater (19th & 6th)
An accident-prone, self-proclaimed stuntman eager to earn the money needed for his abusive stepfather's life-saving heart operation hatches a plan to jump 15 busses in a comedy scripted by the Lonely Island team (Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer) in collaboration with Pam Brady, and starring Samberg and Ian McShane. Once the stunt is completed and his gruff stepfather recovers from the operation, the clumsy daredevil determines to strike back at the too-hard-to-please patriarch with everything he's got.
