Over the past several years, Gerold Oliver has carved out a unique position within the local theater community. The past season alone found the Nashville native starring as basketball legend Perry Wallace in Nashville Children’s Theatre’s excellent Strong Inside before strutting his stuff as Foxy Loxy in The Gingerbread Kid. He charmed audiences as Harpo in The Color Purple, earned big laughs in It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play and stole our hearts as Orlando in this summer’s As You Like It. Endlessly versatile and engaging, Oliver has truly established himself as one of Nashville’s most reliable talents.
