Meet Ruby!
(a.k.a. Ramón)
Ruby Marez is not just a triple threat, but a quintuple threat as a comedian, drag performer, actor, writer, and first-generation Latina!
Her magnetic energy and hilarious performances have earned her numerous accolades in theater, film and television writing.
Her solo show "The Ramón Show: Spiritual Cheerleading 101" featuring her drag king Ramón, has garnered critical acclaim and won multiple awards at the Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2022, including "Best Immersive and Games Show," "Pick of The Fringe," and a "Producers Encore Award."
Ruby currently tours this award-winning, audience-interactive show to colleges, theaters, and various venues across the United States. And when she's not entertaining audiences with her solo show, she's bringing her drag king Ramón, to festivals, comedy shows, and immersive, interactive events.
Ruby is also a multi-talented writer, co-writing the original comedic pilot "Year Zero," which was an I.F.P. finalist (now known as The Gotham Awards) in 2018 and went into development.
Ruby's acting skills have not gone unnoticed either, winning Best Actress for the short film "Corações em Fogo" at the Culture and Diversity Film Festival in 2019.
Ruby's creative endeavors span beyond the entertainment industry. She's also a published writer, with her essay on growing up as both Puerto Rican and Jewish in the Midwest featured in the book "What We Brought Back: Jewish Life After Birthright-Reflections by Alumni of Taglit-Birthright Israel Trips."
Her sketch comedy duo, Arroz Con Pho, has performed at Second City L.A., in the Los Angeles Diversity in Comedy Fest, and most recently to a sold-out house at S.F.'s Sketchfest in 2023!
Ruby is a creative powerhouse and her talent and charisma are not to be missed!
