“In addition to being a most dedicated artist, he is a quiet leader and encourages others to stretch and grow... He is smart without pretension, assertive with grace, modest without bashfulness, and has the capability to achieve transformative creative expression.”
Bio
Ross Barron was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado. His favorite credits include "Macbeth" and "The Seagull" at Princeton University, as well as "[Work in Progress]", a full-length play he wrote and directed as an undergraduate. He has studied acting at Stella Adler Studios (NY), Lucid Body House (NY), and at Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London.
Ross holds a degree from Princeton University in English and a minor in Drama. There, he appeared in 19 plays and wrote/produced 2 himself. He also sang with Shere Khan a cappella and went on two east-coast tours with the Princeton Triangle Club.
At Princeton he received the Tim Vasen Award for dedication, passion, risk taking and exceptional accomplishment as an undergraduate, as well as the Alan Downer Prize for an exceptional senior thesis in Drama.
“Ross was a terrific collaborator, a company leader, the kind of performer who raised the bar for everyone he is working with through his dedication, work ethic, and infectious good humor.”
