Thornton Wilder’s 1942 Pulitzer-winning The Skin of Our Teeth is on all month at A Noise Within in Pasadena and is more relevant than ever. The story digs back to a prehistoric era while keeping the setting modern and providing commentary on the human experience — and how to survive what feels like the end of the world. It’s not all doom and gloom though and A Noise Within always delivers with top-notch performances.

By the way, Mildred Marie Langford, whose voice you've probably heard on LAist 89.3 FM, is part of the cast! She's portraying Gladys Antrobus.
