Wednesday Video Spotlight: Twinprov to debut new “Harry Potter” rap at midnight Thursday
Oklahoma City-based comedy duo Twinprov, made up of twin brothers Buck and Clint Vrazel, will be debuting their brand new rap song, titled “Dirty Harry Potter,” this Thursday at the midnight screening of “Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows: Part 2″ at the Harkins Theaters Bricktown 16.
In 2009 and 2010, Twinprov produced a string of popular movie-themed raps in conjunction with NewsOK and BAM’s Blog and performed many of them live at advanced screenings and midnight premieres. One of those songs, “The New Moon Rap” has more than 100,000 views on YouTube and was featured on “Last Call with Carson Daly.”
Harkins Theaters engaged the Vrazels to create their latest rap, a sequel to their 2009 “Harry Potter Rap,” posted above, to mark the midnight opening of the eighth and final film in the blockbuster film franchise. “Dirty Harry Potter” will feature original music by Twinprov collaborator Phil Dow, aka DJ Philonious Tao, currently working with the Vrazels on their first full-length album.
Also, Twinprov will also be staging a fundraiser performance called “Twinprov and Friends” on Friday to defer some of the trave costs associated with attending upcoming improv festivals in Austin, Texas; Kansas City, Mo.; and Honolulu, Hawaii. The performance is set for 8 p.m. Friday at Ghostlight Theatre Club, 3110 N Walker.
The Vrazels will be inviting some of their favorite improvisers to join them on stage, making a for a one-of-a-kind event featuring the state’s top improv talent. There will be a raffle for a chance to win prizes, including tickets to the fall run of OKC Improv, the chance to perform in a scene with the Vrazels, and improvised serenades and songs from Buck and Clint. Donations will be accepted throughout the night. Tax deductible donations can be made to Twinprov at any time via OKC Improv by following the instructions at www.okcimprov.com/p/donate.html.
The Vrazels also will be performing on Saturday night at the OKC Improv Summer Run Finale at Ghostlight Theatre Club with Alternate History and “Villain: The Musical” during the 8 p.m. show and with Locust Pocus and Sketchers in the Wry for the 10 p.m. show. Tickets are $10 each, $5 for improvisers and improv students. Admission is free if you’re celebrating your birthday with OKC Improv.
