From September 21 through October 16, Fitch acted in the play Private Lives as Sibyl.[3][4] Critic Billy Skelton praised her performance as Sibyl, writing: "Kathie Everett is splendid as the pouty, pert, pretty Sibyl, the unfortunate girl who has just married Elyot."[5] From October 26 through November 13th, she acted in Lo and Behold as Minnetonka Smallflower.[6]
Fitch had her mainstream film debut as a clinical patient in Alan Abel's comedy mondo film Is There Sex After Death? (1971), which featured Abel, Buck Henry, Holly Woodlawn, and Robert Downey Sr. in leading roles.[1] While her role was a bit part, it was Fitch's first experience on a film set.[1] In a marketing publicity stunt, Abel advertised the fictitious "Sex Olympics" that would air on live television—Fitch and her husband were heavily involved in the hoax by acting as contestants.[7] Fitch later portrayed Lydia in the musical By Hex (1972) for the Mountain Playhouse in Jennerstown, Pennsylvania.[8] Fitch's performance received acclaim: Dorothy Kantner of Daily American wrote that Fitch "certainly proves her professionalism."
