SCRIPT TO SCREEN: BARRY WITH HENRY WINKLER

TUESDAY, MAY 11, 2021 - 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM - ONLINE

Presented by the Carsey-Wolf Center.

Actor Henry Winkler will join Pollock Theater Director Matt Ryan for a discussion of his role in the TV series Barry and his distinguished career in entertainment. Barry may be streamed in advance on Amazon Prime and HBO MAX.

Patrons who register for the event by Sunday, May 9 by 12 p.m. will receive a link to stream the show’s pilot episode 48 hours prior to the event.

The dark comedy Barry stars Bill Hader as a depressed, low-rent hitman from the Midwest, who reluctantly travels to Los Angeles to execute a hit on an aspiring actor. Barry follows his “mark” into an acting class and ends up finding an accepting community in a group of eager hopefuls within the LA theater scene. He wants to start a new life as an actor, but his criminal past won’t let him walk away — can he find a way to balance both worlds?

This event is free but registration is required.
