BIKE PORN 3:
a collection of short erotic films… and bikes.
Bike Porn, a Portland based project initiated in 2007, has developed into a touring film festival of shorts exploring the eroticism and sexuality of human-powered transportation.Though Bike Porn they aim to break taboo, provide a forum for emerging artists to screen their work, and facilitate cultural acknowledgement of fringe communities. The show is an exhilarating experience, but the real magic happens afterwards when people who otherwise would feel uncomfortable discussing sex, gender or other topics are able to speak freely. The films are hetero and queer oriented, but above all sex positive and full of bikesexuality. For adult audiences. Feeling bike-curious? Check out one of the trailers on www.bikesmut.com

AHOYA!
An Aerial Jungle Adventure
What do you get when you put 30+ aerialists into the jungle, throw in some drummers, a plane crash, and top it all off with a 20-foot tall T-Rex? Ahoya!, The Sky Box’s annual student show.
The Sky Box, the 30′ aerial theater at the House of Yes, functions as a rehearsal space during the day but for one weekend will become the wildest, densest rain forest full of animated plants, acrobatic animals, and rambunctious tribal natives governed by a villainous tribal queen. When some tribe members are visited by visions of their destined noble queen, they conjure a spell to bring her to her new island home…
Every year Sky Box Aerial Studio stages an epic circus-theater production casting its most dedicated aerial students. The Sky Box prides itself on being NYC’s only dedicated aerial theater venue. This production has a cooler plane crash than Lost and stunts as good as The Lion King.
Doors at 8pm, Show at 9pm
$20 at the door, $15 in advance at
