A production of Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer-winning play about mankind's triumph over chaos, which wildly altered dramatic conventions in freely shifting between modern-day New Jersey and the Ice Age--the Antrobus family pets are dinosaurs--and having characters speak directly to the audience and criticize the way their own dialogues were written.
