Oral is a dramedy about Izzy, a “not deaf enough” millennial, who is navigating adulthood and a chaotic love life, all while learning to embrace her disability in 2007 Los Angeles.
She’s deaf and, tragically, she’s a millennial. Izzy is determined to prove herself in big ways by becoming an Impressive AdultTM. With Cochlear Implants, she doesn’t fit into the Deaf world, but the hearing world isn’t always accessible to her either.
Irony abounds when Izzy starts a career in the music industry. She makes music videos while catering to the whims of wannabe pop stars and their helicopter parents.
Oral is the tale of a deaf woman with digital ears and a unique voice.
In 2021, Alexandra and Adrienne produced a virtual performance of Oral’s pilot, “Impressive Adult,” featuring an all-star cast that included Andrea Martin, Abbi Jacobson, Will Forte, David Krumholtz, and other phenomenal actors.
"I can’t stop thinking about how absolutely INCREDIBLE that reading was and how even more incredible Oral itself is. You all have made a beautiful, hilarious, heartfelt thing and I want to watch more and more and more."
"I hate pilots and shows, but that was amazing! When is there more? It was really, really, really good."
"I loved it!! So funny, and those awkward moments, too, were just so good!! Can't wait to see this on TV"
"I feel seen"
"I love that you are giving a voice to a community that has not been able to share their story!"
"It was GREAAAAAT!!!!!! I’m ready for the next episode!!"
