NHTI’s “Stage Lynx” drama club will present Thornton Wilder’s The Skin of Our Teeth, the Pulitzer-prize-winning, three-part comic allegory about the history of mankind and its constant struggle to overcome adversity.
The show, which will run April 24-26, chronicles the lives of the mythical Antrobus family, whose inpidual members somehow persist throughout the ages of man – from a prehistoric Ice Age, through a quasi-Biblical flood (now set in 1950’s Atlantic City), to the aftermath of a futuristic war. The show is directed by James Webber.
The Skin of Our Teeth will be performed Friday, April 24, and Saturday, April 25, at 7 p.m., and Sunday. April 26, at 2 p.m., in NHTI’s Sweeney Auditorium. Tickets are $10 (free for NHTI students) and are available at the door.
