It was learned that Rıza Akın, a famous theater and film actor, who entered the hearts with his many productions and was taken to the hospital as a result of his illness, passed away. While the news of the death of the beloved actor Akın, who is a member of the board of directors of Adana Theater Association, saddens the entire art community and citizens, who is Rıza Akın, where is he from, how old is he, why did he die? What was his illness? The answers to the questions were also a matter of curiosity.
He was born on September 15, 1957 in Adana as a child of a family from Erzincan. He met theater in Adana Community Center during his secondary school years (Adana’s Theater History – Assoc. Nurhan Tekerek). He moved to Ankara for the theater. He became a professional at Ankara Birlik Theatre. After taking a break from his theater life (1969-1977), he studied communication and started to work as a journalist.
He continued the theater in Adana with works other than acting. He founded the Seyhan Municipality Theater Group in 1997 and served as its art consultant for five years. He returned to acting in 2005 with Tayfun Pirselimoğlu’s unfinished Quartet. He still works as a news reporter and acting on a national television.
