“Rona Benson gives us the ultimate Lala.”

    - Montgomery Advertiser

How I Learned to Drive - Mark Taper Forum

“Rona Benson, who primarily acts as L’il Bit’s grandma, is delightfully funny and sharp.  Her energy helps drive the play, and our eye is frequently drawn to her ...  there’s a lot you won’t want to miss in this one- above all [Brian] Kerwin’s sadness, [Johanna] Day’s delivery, and [Rona] Benson’s joy.”

    - BackStage West

Arcadia - South Coast Repertory

“South Coast Repertory has paid careful attention to casting the two romantic leads ...  the dime-sized Benson is fresh and straightforward, as if the complex ideas incubating in her brain were realizations that every girl comes to in her studies.”

    - Los Angeles Times

“There is a marvelous interplay between Keeslar’s haughty Septimus and Benson’s effervescent Thomasina ...  Benson simply overflows with the enthusiasm of one who cannot contain the gush of inquiry and creativity that pours from her soul.”
