The Handless King – Amphibian Stage
July 26 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$17![](https://i0.wp.com/fortworthreport.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Handless-KingWebsiteListings.jpg?fit=893%2C1164&ssl=1)
A coworker dispute turns deadly in this morbidly funny new play. Set during the Assyrian Empire, The Handless King follows two humble government employees both tasked with tallying the dead in the wake of a recent battle. The problem? Only one of them can keep their job.
As the day wears on, truths are revealed, revolution draws near, and someone’s losing limbs before the sun is set. This world premiere-inspired by real artifacts from 728 BCE-explores a timeless truth: move with the times or get left behind. This high-octane historical fantasy comes to you after a wildly successful development at Amphibian Stage’s 2023 Sparkfest.
Runtime: 2 hours, One intermission
