Ron Hastings

Back to Ragtime

Artist Profile

Ron is delighted to be back on stage at the Chance. He was last seen here as Dr. Madden in the award-winning 2022 production of Next to Normal and previously appeared as Bruce in Fun Home, Father in Ragtime, and Ian in The Other Place. He holds a B.A. degree in Theatre from UC Riverside and an M.F.A. from UC Irvine. Beyond his work at the Chance, Ron has performed in dozens of productions at theaters throughout the Inland Empire including IVRT, Lewis Family Playhouse, and Candlelight Pavilion. Favorite roles include Howie in Rabbit Hole (with Christa Havenhill), Greg in Sylvia, Salieri in Amadeus and the title role in Willy Wonka. He considers the Chance his artistic home, so the opportunity to co-produce, partner and perform in this remarkably challenging and provocative play is a dream come true. Thanks and love to everyone involved in this collaboration.
