Good afternoon, Oklahoma City, and welcome to our first “What’s Happening this Week” feature! We’ve designed “What’s Happening” to keep you in the loop every Monday afternoon with details on all the events in the metro worth checking out. You’ll also want to check out the (much cooler) weekend feature debuting this Friday afternoon. Enough talk — on to the goodies!

Monday, April 27th

Twinprov Performance @ “Mondays Don’t Suck”
Time: 8:30pm – 10:30pm
Location: 51st Street Speakeasy

The 51st Speakeasy is hosting “Twinprov”, an original two-man show with twin brothers Buck and Clint Vrazel that’s promised to be a mix of improv, stand-up, sketch, and musical comedy. There’s no cover to get in, and rumor has it they’ll only card you if you want to drink. It’s a smoke-free environment, to boot!

Tuesday, April 28th

Rally ’round the Flaming Lips!
Time: 2:00pm – 3:00pm
Location: Oklahoma History Center

You have probably heard the hubbub over Oklahoma’s “Official Rock Song” by now. The Flaming Lips are our local rock stars, but because they occasionally wear silly shirts and curse our mom doesn’t let us hang with them. In this case, by “mom” I mean “Oklahoma House of Representatives.”

On Tuesday Governor Henry will sign the song into the annals of Oklahoma history using his super governor powers. There will be a rally to yell things, and Mg will be there. If anything, it’s a great excuse to cut out of work early.

Wednesday, April 29th

The Last Wednesdays
Time: 6:30pm – 10:00pm
Location: ODDFAB studio / workshop

Artists, designers, and random people are invited to the last Wednesday of the month mixer at the ODDFAB, Oklahoma’s #1 place were people do things, and stuff. Bring your own drinks! Start a revolution!

Friday, May 1st

Overture Happy Hour
Time: 5:30pm – 7:00pm
Location: Prohibition Room

The OKC Philharmonic is hosting “Overture Happy Hour” at the Prohibition Room this Friday. Rumor has it they’ll be on the patio, and will be imbibing a number of delicious drinks in honor of everything Friday. Jazz harping to follow happy hour, so why not stay for dinner?

That’s all the talk that worth talking this week.
If you would like to make sure we include your happy-good fun time next week, make sure you invite us to the event on Facebook. You are using Facebook, right? We’ll see you around town!
