Oliver met the rest of the HighRise team whilst studying at East 15 on the Acting & Contemporary Theatre Course. From this he has continued his work for HighRise as a facilitator at We are Spotlight, Centre Point, Artsdepot and Chickenshed.
What created the building blocks for Oliver’s love of language and his desire to contemporise his work through spoken word and Hip-Hop, was an early education in Shakespeare performance with 1623 Theatre Company, of which he is also an associate artist.
Throughout his career Oliver has collaborated with Derby Playhouse, The Royal Shakespeare Company, National Youth Theatre, The Pleasance, King’s Head Theatre, Camden People’s Theatre and Southwark Playhouse.
Oliver is also a beatboxer- he’s usually the 3rd best in the room at any given time.
