AUDITION INFORMATION

The Skin of our Teeth
by Thornton Wilder  directed by Donna Johns

October 24 - November 2, 2003

In the dark days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Thornton Wilder crafted a fable, a farce, a black comedy and a hopeful piece of drama.   Written by the author of Our Town, this Pulitzer Prize-winning satire deals with the trials and tribulations of the Antrobus family as we follow this "Everyman" and his kin through the Ice Age, Noah's flood, and World War III. As funny and entertaining as it is poignant, this play has been called a testament of faith in humanity.


The N.Y. Herald Tribune termed it "wonderfully wise... a tremendously exciting and profound stage fable."
