one-of-a-kind film. lt! a blaxploitation film with a real edge, and like all of Fanaka's work, it flows beautifully, propelled by the writer/director's great ear for dialogue. 0n paper, the ptemise seems 0utlandish: an unjustly imprisoned man, who nearly loses his penis in a parti(ularly grotesque example of police brutality, hits the streets again after three long years in jail. When he finds out that (onditions are even worse 0n the streets than when he left he takes revenge. His weapon: his sthlong. lt levitates,

R. Kelly is the self-proclaimed pied piper of R&8, and with TRAPPED lN THE (L05ET he teathes us all about how treacherous it can be to fall in love with an R&B star. Guns will be drawn, midgets will be having an affair, and neighbon will use spatulas. Hoo! That kind of love HURTSI But then, rockers already knew how painful love can be, ever since

they started slowing down some of their songs for the ladies, and taking a break from the headbanging so everyone could hold up lighters and sway until they caught their breath. We?e putting these two Sing-Alongs bark to back on June 7 so we can explore all the intricacies 0f love and how two totally different genres of music can be forced to deal with all the same kind of heartbreak. Featuring an interview live-via+atellite with R. Xelly and special commerative"0h my god, a rubber!"condoms at the TRAPPED show and official Love Bites lighters with the Power Ballads! (Henri)

We had done BUFFY sing-alongs and THE MUPPET M0VIE and 6REASE 2, but it wasn't

until we put together the first

MICHAEL JACKSON SING-ALONG

that we realized how

magnicently fun a music video compilation show could really be. This is the show that

started all the rest ofthem, and we'll be batk with dancing zombies in the theater, lasers for Rock With You, and more. Then at 9:45 we'll be bringing back the BOY BAND
SING-AL0NG,
CEDAR FEVER,

which will always be one of our favorites since we randomly created our very own boy band, just for that show. look for a new performance

by Cedar Fever before the show as well as a complete and total breakdown of the history of boy bands and why they are so much more than simple pop and are actually the epitome ofart. ART!l!! (Henri)

Alamo Downtown. 0ne of our beloved classirs? A whole new show? Which classic would

we choose? But be(ause we love all of the sing-alongs so much, we decided that the only thing we could do that would possibly do them justice would be to rreate a whole new show that was full of all of the best moments from every sing-along we've evet done before. So we're combining Power Ballads with Old School Hip Hop with Michael
Jackson with Madonna with Moulin Rouge with Justin Timberlake with Hedwig with Annie. Needless to say, 0wen and I are both super crazy ex(ited for this show, so expect

all sorts ofadded props and extra surprises and possibly some brand new songs you

THE 80s Sing-Along was one of our most popular shows of all time, but it ofthe most difficult Sing-Alongs to put together. After compiling all ofthe videos we wanted to put into the program/ we realized that we were trying to make a Sing-Along

The

first LADIES 0F

was also one

showthatwasalmostfivehourslong.

Thesolution,ofcourse,wast0puttogetherawhole

new show that built upon the awesomeness ofthe first but added even more. This time around

we'll right the wrongs we committed by not having ELEfiRI(Y0UTH in the first show We'll put in more Cyndi Lauper with 5HE B0P and TRUE (010R5. 0ut Mondays will be manic and the rain will come again, falling on our heads like a memory. We won't have a theater downtown until the Ritz opens in September, but we?e keeping the Sing-Alongs alive every week at theVillage with [adies 0fthe 80s Volume 2 on Friday nights in Julyl Let's get physical!
