Ellen is quoted as saying, “I wrote and directed “Waiting For Ronald”, a beautiful story about a 34-year-old developmentally disabled man who leaves the institution where he has spent most of his years. With only his suitcase, fears, and humor, he ventures out to meet his best friends and start a new life.”
A mixed cast of disabled and non-disabled actors play the developmentally disabled characters, Ronald, Andy, and Scotty.
