'Grow' into it
Music
Stephen Carradini
If you’re going to be playing mournful New Orleans jazz, you better have a broken heart, a gritty voice and a talented band.
Off-script
Among other projects, OKC Improv collaborates with Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park with ‘Fortune’s Fools,’ a Shakespearean comedy minus the Shakespeare.
Performing Arts
Charles Martin
Few scenes in the city have blossomed as quickly as improv. Five years ago, it was barely a glimmer; now, local improv troupes can be found at arts festivals, working with student theater programs and touring nationwide.
Around the world in OKC
Like Jules Verne, but edible.

Music Video Monday: Music makes strange bedfellows
Three rap, two rock, two local, three not
Let’s just take a minute and realize that OKC’s professional sports team is one of only four left still playing in the National Basketball Association.
Yeah. This is awesome. Way to go, Thunder. Way to go, OKC.
Also, it’s Music Video Monday.
Rapper Jabee reps the Thunder, which only makes me more excited for Game 4 tonight. Also getting a shout-out: the biblical man Enoch. Didn’t see that one comin’:
Bizarre patrons of music are becoming increasingly common (National Geographic has a record label?!), but Lipton Iced Tea and Pandora teaming up for a video series that features artist interviews is still a little bit of a head-scratcher. Still, this three-part interview with Stillwater’s Taddy Porter is pretty sweet.
While we’re on the subject of strange patrons, here’s a performance clip of NYC rapper Theophilus London kickin’ it at Cannes. The site and the preview ads are in French, which only contributes to the enjoyment. There are several incredibly surreal moments due to his audience, but the most hilarious is at 2:00:
Kitten’s “Chinatown” manipulates footage (slower, faster, forward, reverse) in a fascinating, mesmerizing way. It’s absurd that the lead singer is 16:
