Ticket Price**: General: $79 | Student: $49


Devoted fans and Tolkien newcomers alike will enjoy this accessible exploration of human nature, good and evil, and the dangers of power in Tolkien's backdrop to The Lord of the Rings. Reading will focus on the 20-page section, "The Rings of Power and the Third Age" in The Silmarillion.

Attendees are encouraged to also watch Seasons 1 and 2 of Amazon Prime's The Rings of Power.

Clips will be viewed during our discussion as we consider both similarities and differences between Tolkien's original work and this contemporary made-for-television adaptation.

Dinner will be served from 5:30 to 6:00

w/ Dr. Christy Mathews and Hildegard College Faculty

Friday, December 6th: 5:30-9:00PM | FLDWRK Costa Mesa, 150 Paularino Ave., Bldg. B, Costa Mesa, CA 92626
