Paris Oliver

Paris graduated with a B.A in Theatre Design and Technology from the University of North Carolina Wilmington. She enjoys all aspects of theatre but her main passion is costume and craft production. Sewing is her favorite thing in the world, and she could spend all of her time with a needle and thread. Her dream is to spend the rest of her life doing what she loves and entertaining others.

Paris has been involved with theatre for 8 years, working on school productions and volunteering at local theatres. She has worked at the NC Conservatory Theatre, Raleigh Little Theatre, the Apex Friendship Auditorium, and the UNCW Theatre. She focused on costume crafts and production while at UNCW, and enjoys the craft side of costume production the most!
