Comedic Production Based on the Cellino & Barnes Rift Back for One Night Only

2019-07-27T12:30:00-04:00

Cellino V. Barnes is a comedy production loosely based on the true life breakup of local-celebrity injury attorneys Ross Cellino and Steve Barnes.

After sold-out runs at Union Hall (Brooklyn), the Alleyway Theater (Buffalo), and at UCB Sunset (LA), the new comedy Cellino v. Barnes is set to play The Bell House in Gowanus for one night only on August 3 at 7:30 pm.

Created by Michael Breen (Ross Cellino) and David Rafailedes (Steve Barnes), the play was inspired by the highly publicized break-up of longtime law partners and personal injury lawyers, Cellino & Barnes, who are well known for their commercials that feature the jingle “888-8888.” The production is directed by Hayley Huntley of Comedy Central’s REVIEW and TVLand's LOPEZ.

You know you're a true New Yorker if you read that headline and sang the jingle in your head. Famous for their ubiquitous subway advertisements, local television spots, and uniform telephone number, former legal partners Cellino & Barnes had a very public breakup in 2017, with a huge battle over who would take ownership of the iconic telephone number. Now, a new comedy titled Cellino v. Barnes is loosely based on the drama, and it looks incredible.

Ross Cellino wants to end his long partnership with Steve Barnes, but Steve isn’t letting Ross go without a fight. What the fuzz happened to those two? Weren't they, like, best friends? Let’s go back to where it all began, the beginning. A new comedy loosely based on the true life breakup of famous injury attorneys Ross Cellino and Steve Barnes.

The show is at Union Hall in Park Slope, Brooklyn on June 20th, tickets starting at just $8.

Watch Two Tough Rats Duke It Out in the New York City Subway

2019-05-05T11:00:00-04:00

Here are two New York City rats from Chinatown in the middle of a major Subway brawl. Perhaps they were fighting over love, perhaps over territory, but we are inclined to think they were arguing about whether or not it's considered recycling when retired Subway cars are used as artificial reefs at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean.

Harlem Knight Fight, a Short Film About the New York City Chapter of the Armored Combat League

2016-05-02T09:46:59-04:00

Harlem Knight Fight is a short documentary from MEL Films that follows Damion DiGrazia, captain of the New York City chapter of the Armored Combat League.

For Damion DiGrazia, joining the Air Force, graduating from Harvard and Columbia and putting together a lucrative career as a management consultant at a top investment bank in Manhattan wasn’t enough. He had one more, slightly less conventional item for the bucket list. When this Sunday school teacher isn’t spreading the Good Word, he prefers a metal fist to the teeth. DiGrazia is the captain of the New York chapter of the Armored Combat League — a sort of medieval fight club whose members smash the hell out of each other while dressed like attendees of the Red Wedding in Game of Thrones. “This is a sport that requires passion,” he explains. “Because there’s no responsible way to do it.” We met with Damion at his East Harlem training studio and followed his team to their regional matchup with New England.
