Broadway has lost a bright Star. A native of Jacksonville, Florida, Oliver appeared on Broadway in The Lion King (Simba), In the Heights (Benny, opposite Jordin Sparks), Wicked (Fiyero) and in the National Tours of Motown (Berry Gordy), The Lion King (Simba), Rent (Benny and Collins), Ragtime (Ensemble).

His many regional credits included Pal Joey (Arkansas Repertory Theatre), Kinky Boots (Lola standby for Billy Porter); West Coast Tour of The Scottsboro Boys (Charlie/Victoria), Smokey Joe’s Cafe (Victor), and Godspell (Judas) Off-Broadway WIG-OUT, Bella The Musical and Miracles Brothers to name a few

 

He will be sorely missed. R.I.P.
