Fort
Worth Theatre (FWT) was founded in 1955 and is the
oldest community theatre in Tarrant County. From its very beginning,
the goal of Fort Worth Theatre has been to provide an opportunity for
local non-professionals to participate in live theatre. During the last
fifty years, the theatre has gone through many changes but it remains
true to its mission. FWT strives to bring the community quality
productions of new and classic works of the American theatre.
In addition to stage productions, FWT remains involved within the
community by sponsoring such projects as the High School Playwriting
Project and the Hispanic Playwrights Festival every year. FWT takes
pride and joy in providing a creative outlet for such under-utilized
artists. The theatre is currently exploring the opportunity to offer
classes to the public in basic acting, playwriting, and other aspects
of stagecraft.
Auditions are always open to the public. FWT is currently seeking new
actors, directors, and technicians who want to take part in the living
art that is theatre. No experience required! The group also welcomes
volunteers interested in being a vital presence either backstage or
"out front" before show time. In whatever capacity, whether it be as an
audience member or a member of the cast, Fort Worth Theatre hopes you
will join them soon for a wonderful live theatre experience!
