Amon! The Ultimate Texan

Mid-Cities Arts Collective

AMON! brings the larger-than-life story of Fort Worth icon Amon G. Carter Jr. to the stage in a sharp, fast-paced theatrical portrait written by longtime Texas columnist Dave Lieber.

Carter, known for his swagger, wit, and unapologetic devotion to Fort Worth, built a reputation as one of Texas’ most colorful media figures. Presidents put up with him because he owned the largest newspaper, radio and television station in Texas. He had a big heart, but a bigger sense for business and for the future. He was one of a kind, and this play brings the story of this remarkable Texan back to life.

Blending humor, history, and Texas bravado, Amon! offers audiences a lively look at the man who helped shape Fort Worth’s identity.
