Randy Alan Oliva, Managing Director

A native of Chicago, Randy Alan Oliva spent 5 years in NYC, managing a laundry facility in the morning and studying acting in the evenings. Not to mention being turned down for everything else in between. In 1992 he arrived in Pittsburgh and since then has been very active in Pittsburgh's local theater scene. Randy has had leading roles in The Philadelphia Story, Jeffery, Once in a Lifetime and The Fellowship of Actors and Directors. He has also had the priviledge of performing the lead in the off Broadway production of Cowboy Void in 2003. Randy's mug has been seen in local and national commercials where he's been recognized for stealing cable, singing Karaoke, selling meat, and comforting a dying wife. He also co-starred in a PBS production on domestic violence, played a senator in the documentary, Mysteries of Steel, and played a detective in the short film U: The Underwood Company which will be in the 2008 Cannes film festival.

During the school year, Randy tours with educational shows for Shakespeare in the Schools, Gateway to the Arts, and Little Lake Theater outreach programs. In 1995, Randy started Mystery's Most Wanted, where he and his talented cast are seen throughout PA., New York and Chicago -- not bad for a boy who used to spend his days folding skivies and searching for loose change in jeans. But that's a different story...
