They studied acting at the Yale School of Drama.

MEET THE ARTISTS! ❤️ Rona Leventhal playing Ma

Rona comes to the stage through a form of theatre that tears down the fourth wall: the art of storytelling. Her work for the past thirty-three years as a Performer, Teaching Artist, Workshop Facilitator, Keynote Speaker, Coach and Consultant has taken her to many corners of the world as well as many venues in the US. When telling stories, she’s used to embodying all of the characters herself! But every now and then it’s nice to “play with others” in productions such as this! Rona’s theatre credits include Our Town (Stage Manager), The Crucible (Rebecca Nurse), The Day they Kidnapped the Pope (Sara), American Clock (Rose), Caucasian Chalk Circle (The Singer), Merry Wives of Windsor (Dr. Caius) and The Va**na Monologues. Rona is grateful to Patric Madden for their lead in the revival of Torch Song after last years successful run, for the support of the Easthampton Theatre Company and to all of the cast and production staff!
