Ron Bunzl is an interdisciplinary theater-maker, video-artist and storyteller. His focus is the creation of performances based on stories of professionals and non-professional performers, and is as well engaged in coaching and mentoring both in individual sessions and group workshops.

The performance work can be called cultural activism through theatre. The workshop and research projects focus on empowerment, self-realization, transformation, connection and healing.  The activism takes on artistic, social, psychological and spiritual forms depending on the contexts and is always directed toward celebration and unfolding of human potential, creativity, wellbeing and freedom.
