Dolores Rain
"Ron Link is excellent as Johnnie, the son who had temporarily escaped the world of his mother to lead a happier life in Florida, but who must now return out of financial necessity." Virginia Jones, Plain Press, 1995
Killer Joe
"Ron Link, in the title role, sends out the thrilling energy of an ascending star. His hypnotic magnetism can mercurially switch from reptilian arrogance to angelic charm with the flick of a lighter." Keith Joseph, Scene Magazine, "Killer Joe", 1994.
"Mr. Link is unyieldingly focused; a disciplined and rare artist who can blend wit, subtlety, a refined intelligence, and a delightful sense of improvisation and physicality into each of the diverse parts undertaken." James Levin, director, "Killer Joe", 1994.
The Water Principle
"As Skimmer, Ron Link is astonishing. Link makes the bridge between masculine aggressiveness and the feminine vow to hold on and sustain." Marianne Evett, Cleveland Plain Dealer, 1993.
Off the Map, (staged reading)
"I got nothing but raves from the audience members with whom I spoke. Many said, "Who is that guy? Where did you find him" And that, my friend, is another reason why I wanted you involved because I do believe that if you continue on, someday those questions will be the questions answered by many." Bill Hoffman, director, The Cleveland Playhouse, "Off the Map", 1995.
Keefer Award for Best New Actor
"This new actor shows remarkable control, skill, and discipline. I believe what we are looking at is star quality." Keith Joseph, Scene Magazine, 1993.
Ambition for Ignition
"Not only was Ron skilled and highly regarded at work, he brought the firefighting experience to life artistically with an amazing and daring performance piece titled Ambition for Ignition predating the popular series, Rescue Me" James Levin, Executive Director of Ingenuity Festival, Founder of Cleveland Public Theatre, 1995.
