Legendary actor Richard Ooms has appeared in more than 125 stage productions and dozens of television shows and films. Ooms will discuss the story of his life in the theater—from its beginning in Chicago at the Goodman Theater School, through his adventures in New York City and on the road with The Acting Company, to the circuitous route that brought him to Minneapolis and the Guthrie Theater.
Held every Tuesday evening in February and March, the Age: Wide Angle lecture series offers a fresh perspective on the topic of age and aging by prominent arts leaders who will explore the role age plays in their field of expertise or their own artistic lives.
Held at the Central Library in Pohlad Hall (300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN 55401), the programs are free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served. Doors open at 6:15 and programs begin at 7 PM.
Age: Wide Angle is co-presented by Mill City Commons and the Library Foundation of Hennepin County, and made possible by the generous support of our sponsors: Target, Gentle Transitions, AgeWell, and Gittleman Management
