Skin of Our Teeth

Written By Thornton Wilder 
Directed By Jeff Christian

The Antrobus family is having a time! They find themselves face-to-face with a host of potentially annihilating obstacles: a wall of ice moving south, a flood that will wipe out all man-kind, and a war to end all wars...but they persist! An archetypal image of the family, humankind and perhaps life itself.

Featuring: Eustace Allen, Luis Crespo, Nick Horst, John Mossman, Kathy Scambiatterra, Maria Stephens, Katherine Swan and Matt Welton, Kristen Anderson, Stacie Doublin, Grace Goble and Helen Young.

“…a tremendously smart and winning revival….a reminder of what a terrific, adventurous, often undervalued playwright Thornton Wilder happened to be...it seems custom-made for this moment.”
— Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun Times
“...cunning and sometimes breathtaking production...[Director] Christian’s cast builds the tension and sorrow bit by masterful bit, moving nearly seamlessly from the first act’s absurdity (complete with baby dinosaur and wooly mammoth) to the bleak blasted world left after global warfare.”
— Kerry Reid, Chicago Tribune
