Take a peek into the entertaining roller coaster ride that is the life of the Antrobus family. This modern adaptation of Thornton Wilder's play takes the audience on a comedic journey through typical days in the life of a typical family: George and Maggie Antrobus, their children, Gladys and Henry, and their maid, Sabina. They awkwardly and amusingly struggle with school yard injuries, climate change, marital infidelity, a great war, leadership roles, children's clothing choices, rationing, and familial disputes, among a host of others. No matter how hard the Antrobus family tries, problems continue to surface, but they always find a solution-by the skin of their teeth.
