Support Yvonna & Erik In Creating THE SWEAT SHOP by 8-28

Donation protected
After many years of working with some of the best actors in NYC you’ve never heard of, the now producing/married team of Yvonna and Erik Potempa (referred to as “Those motherfuckers” from this point on) are getting ready to shoot their first web-series project together! As most of you know, those motherfuckers met in acting class, BUT they really bonded while sharing crazy NY stories & cracking jokes as Erik personal trained Yvonna and their mutual friend Alex. So, it’s only fitting that those motherfuckers are now producing, directing, and acting in a crazy NYC gym show that Erik wrote--

THE SWEAT SHOP follows a misfit gym staff struggling mightily to deal with their new owner, a fifteen-year-old tyrannical trust-fund kid, who's on a mission to squeeze every ounce of productivity out of those 'bitch dogs.'

Think RENO 911 meets THE OFFICE in a crappy neighborhood gym in Queens.

Those motherfuckers have put together a great cast (that includes their friend Alex), an amazingly crappy gym space, and an incredible crew. Now, they just need funding for professional sound, camera & gear rental, and insurance. THAT’S WHERE YOU COME IN!

By making a donation TODAY to get this show up and running the way it deserves, you will be coming along with those motherfuckers on a wild journey to create funny, diverse, and (frankly) ballsy indie-TV. AND, those motherfuckers guarantee that you will be highly entertained, enjoy A LOT of belly laughs, and be a big part in creating the art they believe is so very needed right now.

Thank YOU! :)
