About
Oliver is passionate about unscripted theatre and the cross-section that exists between acting and improvisation. He runs SODA Impro through which he produces Played Out, a three-act unscripted play with an emphasis on emotionally grounded, character-driven scenes. He is also one-half of Jan & George with Reid Janisse. Specialty course offerings in Toronto, Detroit, and Los Angeles have included: Viewpoints, Mindfulness, and Meisner for the Actor Improviser; Stanislavski and Scene Dynamics; Impulse, Insight, and Emotion; The Game In Narrative; and Intro to Viewpoints for Improvisation. He's the regular coach for Duck Confetti, and an occasional guest coach for HinProv and other troupes around Toronto. This past year he was a featured instructor at the Dramatic Improv Festival in Chicago, Le Grand Yes And in Montreal, and the Snow Day Improv Marathon in Detroit. This year he's delighted to be a featured instructor at Improv Utopia East.
The award-winning Vampire Zombies... From Space! just completed a limited theatre run in cities across North America and will be available for streaming later this year. He's delighted to have worked so closely with Bygone Theatre in the past few years on live stage productions of The Rear Window, The Birds, and Wayne & Shuster, Live! He also helped develop the roles of Edwin in Kristen Da Silva's The Bluff (Theatre Orangeville) and Mr. Gordon in Vishesh Abeyratne's workshop of Blood Offering (Alma Matter Productions). Oliver has become a regular headlining act at the Detroit Improv Festival. He's an alumnus of Second City Toronto House Co, and can be found sporting a horrible pseudo-Irish accent in the Canadian Podcast Award-winning series Caverns & Comedians.
