Since the opening of our doors in 2000, Amphibian Stage has sought to open minds. We turn a simple stage into provocative stories, reimagine the world, and breathe life into the national arts scene. Our non-profit theatre company, founded by three alumni of TCU’s Department of Theatre, produces the nation’s most ground-breaking and challenging plays. We continue to surprise audiences with stylistically and thematically varied productions.
We are deeply committed to the arts at large, providing diverse programs for youth and veterans; we constantly strive to drive conversations and change perceptions.
Since the start of the pandemic, we have found new ways to make art in a changing world. Currently, all productions are online-only.
“When have you been silenced?”
We asked this question of Black men living and working in Fort Worth and received deeply personal responses. THIS IS MY STORY presents three stories from an educator, an event planner and a Veteran Peer Service Coordinator, each of whom has learned to be silent as a means of self-preservation—but at what cost? With poetry from Calvin Walker and George Njomo, and a music performance from Phib favorite, Tha Band, THIS IS MY STORY, a video project conceived by Dev’n Goodman, challenges us to look deeper, shed assumptions and envision what is possible when we approach one another with understanding and compassion.
Join us at Amphibian Stage for this safe, limited-capacity screening. Running time is 40 minutes.
See Olivier Award-winners, Lindsay Duncan (Birdman, About Time) and Alex Jennings (The Lady in the Van, The Crown), in this brand new play from Simon Woods, broadcast live from the National Theatre in London.
It’s a summer’s morning in 1988 and Tory politician Robin has returned home to the idyllic Cotswold house he shares with his wife of 30 years, Diana; the picture of a perfect marriage. But all is not as blissful as it seems. Diana has a stinking hangover, a fox is destroying the garden, and secrets are being dug up all over the place. As the day draws on, what starts as gentle ribbing and the familiar rhythms of marital scrapping quickly turns to blood-sport.
Inspired by Pablo Neruda’s Odes to Common Things, Amphibian Stage has commissioned Texas artists of all disciplines to create performance works that celebrate simple, human-made objects. We might take these things for granted in our day-to-day lives, but upon closer examination they can inspire joy, gratitude, and perhaps even awe. Join us for an evening of music, movement, animation, and more as we rediscover the beauty of not-so-ordinary trinkets, baubles, and tools.
