Ronald LaCaria

Voice Description

From a deep resonating baritone, describing the murder scene, to the helpful Londoner giving directions to the Minnesotan, I can perform multiple characters live; I can impersonate many old film and TV personalities such as Ronald Coleman, John Wayne, James Mason and more; also cartoon characters from Goofy to Garfield. I can impersonate almost ANY American, European or Asian dialect and I speak Spanish with Mexican and Castellano dialects. I sing well and can harmonize with anything or anyone! I can sing like Frank and croon all day, or rock and roll your blues away.
I can be the guy next door, the expert in the lab coat or Death come to call!
I can make you laugh, I can make you cry.

My Voice Experience

I began doing impersonations at the age of six with the gentle prodding of my father. He would put me on stage in small venues that my family would occasionally visit and I would do impersonations of Bill Cosby, Shelly Berman, Humphrey Bogart and Marlon Brando...and the odd Jack Benny or Slim Pickens. At the age of eight, I was given a ten dollar guitar from Mexico and I haven't stopped playing yet. I started training myself by slowing down classical violin music and copying it. (I was later given lessons!) As I grew to a teen, I started playing in bands, duos, trios, quartets and as a solo singer. I attended college in California and worked in repertory companies, coffee houses, recorded voice overs for Japanese soap operas and Indonesian cartoons and re-enacted old time Radio Theater. Since then I have been in several movies as a stunt player/actor, written and performed scripts for live performances including special effects, written and recorded copy for radio, print and web media advertisement, delivered the news on radio, hosted radio shows, performed theater and live music performances and am continually expanding my vocal and creative horizons!

My Training

I was 'schooled' in various aspects of the performing arts by my parents and family, all of whom had a modicum of experience with the arts...I attended college in Irvine and Costa Mesa California where I studied Theater Arts and Mime. (Yes, Mime!)
I am trained in full contact stunt fighting, "prat" falls, high falls and general ground stunts.

Additional Skills

I have performed in hundreds of stage productions, live music performances, radio broadcasts, live and video product demonstrations.
I worked in a western theme park for four years doing live gunfights in the morning and a Mark Wilson magic show in the afternoon, then played music at night.
I can come up with ideas on the spur of the moment and am not afraid to listen!!!
I can take a punch and still take a stair fall, I think!
I sing well and my character voices and music get wonderful responses.
All of my age and experience has brought me to this point and no one can offer you more!
