In the 5,000 years they’ve been married, George and Maggie Antrobus have survived wars, plagues, floods, and everything in between. Now they're running low on food – and a massive glacier is headed toward their New Jersey home. An epic, timely comedy about the endurance of human spirit, Thornton Wilder’s THE SKIN OF OUR TEETH follows one “everyfamily” through the great struggles and triumphs of the human experience. Led by innovative director Lileana Blain-Cruz in a production that speaks directly to our current moment, this Pulitzer Prize-winning classic with additional material by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins is a profound reminder that life is always worth living – no matter how difficult things get.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR The Skin of Our Teeth
‘The Skin of Our Teeth’ review: A set as big as the running time
6 / 10
With its visual appeal and committed cast, the pessimistic asides are hardly necessary. Beans, who brings to mind Endora from 'Bewitched,' begins a smidge too campy, but turns out one of the season's funnier performances. Meredith and Roslyn Ruff, as Mr. and Mrs. Antrobus, ground the zaniness with moral authority. And, playing the Antrobus' son, Henry, Julian Robertson's PTSD-inflected performance in Act 3 is affecting.But golly, this set. 'Our Town,' with its ladders and chairs, looks like a very poor cousin, indeed.
Review: Visionary Lileana Blain-Cruz spearheads contemporary take on ‘The Skin of Our Teeth’
9 / 10
As an absurdist meditation on resilience, 'The Skin of Our Teeth' (which premiered on Broadway in 1942) is still relevant today, but its larger life lessons hardly seem revolutionary. We've already spent the past two years in a deeply intimate relationship with endurance. Surely, we will have to again. My advice? Surrender to the creativity of 'Skin' which, in 2022, is best viewed as a theatrical vessel for the many great talents currently working in American theater. A play this long and zany would have a harder time holding attention if not for the 28 cast members' unrelenting commitment to crazy. Gabby Beans, in particular, as the Antrobuses' high-octane housemaid Sabina, gives the best comedic performance I've seen all year. Almost Disney-like in her zealousness, Beans adopts the voice of Yzma from 'The Emperor's New Groove' and spritelyness of Edna Mode from 'The Incredibles,' then drops the act to assure us that she, too, is confused: 'Don't take this play serious. The world's not coming to an end. You know it's not. People exaggerate!'
