Ronald Prokeš

As a rule, Ronald doesn't usually speak about himself in the third person. However, he will make an exception for the sake of looking more professional here. 

Ronald was born in the small town of Velké Popovice in the Czech republic. He went to an American kindergarten in Prague, where he learned fluent English from native speakers. As a fortunate consequence he has acquired an American accent.

Leading somewhat of a separate life in each of the two languages, he then decided a good idea would be to take on a couple of more lives in the form of characters in the pages of scripts. So, he started performing in plays during high school. It was around this time that he started training formally as an actor. Attending Meisner Technique classes at the Prague Playhouse and working with the Prague Shakespeare Company and other english-language theatre companies in Prague. Around the age of 17, he also started teaching himself how to play guitar how to sing. After listening to enough of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Eric Clapton, he though to himself: "Hey, I can do that too." It is harder than he initially thought. 

After graduating from the English College in Prague he started studying Education with English and Drama at the University of Cambridge. He is currently in his 2nd year and has taken all the opportunities to act on stage and in film within and outside the university. This has lead him to be part of the Shakespeare Academy at Stratford, Connecticut in the summer of 2015, where he trained and performed in Henry the 5th and Twelfth Night in repertory. Most recently, he trained with Frantic Assembly's Scott Graham in their Advanced Physicality workshop.

Ronald has been very fortunate to be able to work with so many talented and inspired people on multiple projects and hopes to continue to work twice as hard on every role, song, and project to come.
