Auditions December 7th & 8th from 5-7pm About the Play: Completed by the author less than a month after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, The Skin of our Teeth (1942) broke from established theatrical conventions and walked off with the 1943 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Combining farce, burlesque, and satire, and elements of the comic strip, Thornton Wilder depicts an Everyman Family as it narrowly escapes one end-of-the-world disaster after another, from the Ice Age to flood to war. Meet George and Maggie Antrobus of Excelsior, New Jersey, a suburban, commuter-town couple (married for 5,000 years), who bear more than a casual resemblance to that first husband and wife, Adam and Eve: the two Antrobus children, Gladys (perfect in every way, of course) and Henry (who likes to throw rocks and was formerly known as Cain); and their garrulous maid, Sabina (the eternal seductress), who takes it upon herself to break out of character and interrupt the course of the drama at every opportunity (“I don’t understand a word of this play!”) Whether he is inventing the alphabet or merely saving the world from apocalypse, George and his redoubtable family somehow manage to survive–by the skin of their teeth. Casting Notes The Skin of Our Teeth is a highly physical, fast-paced play running approximately 2.5 hours. The production will require an intensive rehearsal process with clear deadlines for line memorization and scene work. Actors should carefully consider their availability from December-March of 2026 and be prepared to commit fully to the schedule and the ensemble’s shared goals. We encourage actors of all races, ethnicities, genders, body types, and abilities to audition. Wilder’s play thrives on bold, inventive interpretations, and the members of the Antrobus family do not need to share a physical resemblance to one another. Our goal is to assemble an ensemble that reflects the diversity and imagination of the world today.
