Amphibian's MR. & MRS. FITCH to Star Bradley Campbell, Meg MacCary, 4/12-29

Amphibian Stage Productions today announced casting for its first main stage production of the year, Mr. & Mrs. Fitch, written by Douglas Carter Beane. Krista Scott directs Bradley Campbell and Meg MacCary in this comedy running April 12-29 at The Hardy and Betty Sanders Theatre at the Fort Worth Community Arts Center.

Meet gossip columnists Mr. and Mrs. Fitch. When the social circuit no longer provides juicy morsels, and when the pressure to create news in our never-ending news cycle becomes just a bit much, it’s time to toss back the martinis, dish out the bon mots, and realize that great celebrity can just appear out of thin air. This wicked, urbane comedy is a scathing look at who is in, who is out, and who may not even exist at all.

Mr. & Mrs. Fitch opens on Thursday, April 12 and continues through Sunday, April 29, with performances at 8 PM on Thursdays through Saturdays and matinees at 2 PM on Sundays. Performances will take place at The Hardy and Betty Sanders Theatre at the Fort Worth Community Arts Center, located at 1300 Gendy Street, Fort Worth, TX 76107

Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for seniors, and $15 for students. To purchase tickets, theatergoers may call 817-923-3012, write to boxoffice@amphibianproductions.org, or visit www.amphibianproductions.org.
