From a safety standpoint, if the lamp is going to be thrown around, dropped, or whatever, I would only do this using low voltage lighting, NOT 120v. My concern is what if something internal gets damaged during the fight scene. It's fine that it'll be off during the fight, but it would be tragic if the next time it was next turned on (by actor, tech, or whoever) if there was suddenly 120 VAC on the metal parts of the lamp. Even if you do use 12v, I'd be concerned about returning the lamp to normal service after the show.
