Oral Fixation (An Obsession with True Life Tales) will “Jump Off a Cliff” on Friday, November 3rd at AT&T Performing Arts Center to kick off its 6th season.

On Monday, October 13th at 8:00pm, Dallas’ runaway hit storytelling series, Oral Fixation (An Obsession with True Life Tales), will kick off its 4th season with an hour long evening featuring seven juicy true tales on the theme “Go With the Flow” at the Wyly Studio Theater. In an effort to satisfy a very hungry audience, an additional performance of all Season 4 shows will be held at the Texas Theater in Oak Cliff beginning with “Go With the Flow” on Wednesday, October 15th at 8:00pm.

Headlined by the “storytelling dynamo” herself Nicole Stewart who follow up on her “Bun in the Oven” piece from last season that went on to be featured on the Huffington Post, this cast also features Nayrok Udab, the stand-up comic sister of Dallas treasure Erykah Badu, who will share tidbits from her phase with lesbianism. Other highlights include a tale of adventure in the whitewater of Chile, a woman coming to terms with her incurable cancer, a reflection on going through that most pivotal moment of adolescence without a mother, and a hysterical stint on “Wheel of Fortune.” This season opener sets the standard high for another year full of stories that will shock, seduce, and soothe the audience.   Continue reading →

Mico Rodriguez To Headline Oral Fixation For Cinco de Mayo

Mico-Rodriguezby Steven Doyle

Two weeks from tonight, on Cinco de Mayo, Dallas’ live storytelling series Oral Fixation will complete its overwhelmingly popular 3rd season at AT&T Performing Arts Center’s Wyly Theatre with a dynamic and diverse evening of outrageously juicy true tales on the theme “The Whole Enchilada.”  It’s been an amazing season and they plan on going out with a bang.
The biggest catch of this cast is undoubtedly Mico Rodriguez of “Mr Mesero” (and of course founder of Mi Cocina) fame who will come out of the shadows to share his fascinating tale of success and struggle in the Tex Mex biz.  Mico is this fantastic storyteller, who often conjures these intricate back stories for his restaurants. Also noteworthy are a Dallas Observer writer’s raunchy play-by-play at a recent enchilada-eating contest and a woman’s remarkable journey through evangelism and sexuality conversion therapy to accepting herself as she is.

Check Out Oral Fixation’s Final Show For The Season Tonight

by Steven Doyle

Last month I checked out this delightful program at the The MAC, located at 3120 McKinney Ave. and was thrilled.  Oral Fixation is about story telling and includes people from all backgrounds with diverse stories.  Tonight is the final night of the season and you need to check this out.

CraveDFW contributor and writer Steven Lindsey said it best: “It’s the perfect night of live theater: Nothing but a bare stage, a bar stool and regular people’s real stories — all taking up little more than an hour. Nicole carefully selects submissions and assembles the show to take the audience on an emotional journey. Some tales are heartwarming, some are hilarious, and others are absolutely remarkable.”     Continue reading →
