1942. New Jersey, USA. Welcome to the world of Mr and Mrs Antrobus, a remarkable family who have survived every catastrophe throughout history by 'the skin of their teeth . With a new Ice Age on its way, dinosaurs on the front lawn and the end of the world due in 24 hours, will they be so lucky this time? The Skin of Our Teeth won the Pulitzer Prize in 1942. In our world of American supremacy and imminent ecological disaster, the day of Wilder's philosophical comedy has come again.
