An epic, timely comedy about the endurance of human spirit, The Skin of Our Teeth follows one “everyfamily” through the great struggles and triumphs of the human experience in a production that speaks directly to our current moment, with additional material by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins.
The projection design is comprised of two elements: intricately animated Newsreels that precede each act as stand-alone movies, and expansive environmental projections that underscore the impending climate disasters.
