Buck and Clint Vrazel of Twinprov channeling the Weasley twins of “Harry Potter” fame.

Oklahoma City-based comedy duo Twinprov, made up of twin brothers Buck and Clint Vrazel, continues to break onto the national stage with their 10th consecutive invitation to perform at an out-of-state improv festival this year.

In April, they became the first improv troupe from Oklahoma to perform at the prestigious Chicago Improv Festival. In June, Twinprov made its debut at the Colorado Improv Festival in Colorado Springs and The Twin Cities Improv Festival in Minneapolis.

Twinprov will be going back on the road in September, performing at the Out of Bounds Comedy Festival in Austin and Kansas City Improv Festival before travelling nearly halfway around the world to headline Improvaganza! The Hawaii Festival of Improv. The Vrazels were invited, but unable to attend festivals in Albuquerque, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and San Francisco.

In 2009 and 2010, Twinprov produced a string of popular movie-themed raps in conjunction with NewsOK and performed many of them live at advanced screenings and midnight premieres held at the Harkins Theaters Bricktown 16. Harkins Theaters engaged the Vrazels to create a sequel to their “Harry Potter Rap” which will have its world premiere at the Harkins Theaters Bricktown 16 at the midnight debut of “Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows: Part 2″, the final entry in the groundbreaking film series. The new rap, titled “The Dirty Harry Potter” features original music by Twinprov collaborator Phil Dow, aka DJ Philonious Tao, currently working with the Vrazels on their first full-length album.

To help defer some of the travel costs associated with upcoming festival appearances, OKC Improv is hosting a fundraiser performance titled “Twinprov & Friends” at 8 p.m. Friday at Ghostlight Theatre Club, 3110 N Walker. Buck and Clint 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.
