Angela Oliver
Angela "Anjee-O" Oliver is a hybrid performing artist of many talents. Through music improv/sketch comedy, poetry, and interdisciplinary performance art she seeks to inspire a greater interest in interdisciplinary art forms that celebrate female empowerment, diversity, and individuality.
She is a current ensemble member with Matt Damon Improv, PREACH, Storytown and Chicago Slam Works teaching artist. Anjee can currently be seen performing in Baby Wants Candy's Shamilton: The Improvised Musical. Past credits include, Second City Outreach & Diversity’s REACH variety showcase at UP Comedy Club and the Annoyance Theatre's long-running "Oprah's Last Show: A Musical Comedy." She was also a regular featured poet/solo performance act in the Beast Women Cabaret Series.
Staying true to what her Beasties call her “uncensored and unedited” reflections, Anjee-O has become a Chicago favorite known for her raw and candid performance and depictions of an artist’s life. Her refreshingly honest reflections garnered her place as a competing poet on Lethal Poetry's Words That Kill Slam Team--one of only two nationally competing Chicago slam teams. In her debut year competing in local slams, Anjee-O went from National Poetry Slam rookie to representative for Words That Kill/Lethal Poetry at the Individual World Poetry Slam (IWPS) 2011 in Cleveland, OH.
A Chicago performing artist of many talents, Anjee-O is also a talented jazz singer. She has also sung back-up for How Far to Austin at the House of Blues Chicago and continues to teach and perform interdisciplinary performance art in and around the Chicago area.
