Amphibian Stage Productions (Kathleen Culebro, Artistic Director) will show a film of the National Theatre of London's production of Coriolanus by William Shakespeare, starring Tom Hiddleston, on Wednesday, January 13 at 2pm and 7pm, and Saturday, January 16 at 1pm, in partnership with the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. This will be the first National Theatre Live screening of Amphibian's 2016 season.

Distributed internationally by BY Experience, National Theatre Live is an initiative to broadcast live performances from the National Theatre?s stages to cinemas worldwide. In Fort Worth, the screenings are presented exclusively at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, courtesy of Amphibian Stage Productions. Fort Worth screenings of National Theatre Live began in the fall of 2011.

Shakespeare's searing tragedy of political manipulation and revenge, Coriolanus features an Evening Standard Award-winning performance from Tom Hiddleston (The Avengers, War Horse, BBC's The Hollow Crown) in the title role, directed by Donmar's Artistic Director Josie Rourke.

When an old adversary threatens Rome, the city calls once more on her hero and defender: Coriolanus. But he has enemies at home too. Famine threatens the city, the citizens' hunger swells to an appetite for change, and on returning from the field Coriolanus must confront the march of realpolitik and the voice of an angry people.


Coriolanus will screen on Wednesday, January 13, 2016 at 2pm and 7pm, and Saturday, January 16, 2016 at 1pm, at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Tickets to National Theatre Live broadcasts are $20, with additional discounts available for seniors, students, members of Amphibian Stage Productions and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, members of the theatre community, as well as groups of 10 or more.

To purchase tickets, theatergoers may call 817-923-3012, write to boxoffice@amphibianstage.com, or visit www.amphibianstage.com. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth is located at 3200 Darnell Street, Fort Worth, TX 71607.
