Our Teeth” For the
The St. Mary’s Dramatics Club
has chosen as its first offering of
the 1967-68 school year, Thorton
Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize winning
play, “The Skin of Our Teeth.”
This play is a satiric story of the
Antrobus family through the ages
—from the time the great wall of
ice creeps over the world until
the end of the war—any war.
The Antrobuses have survived
fire, flood, locusts, the ice age, a
dozen wars, and many depressions.
Ultimately, they are the stuff of
which heroes are made—heroes
and buffoons. They have surviv-
ed endless disasters by the skin of
their teeth, and Mr. Wilder’s play
is a tribute to their indestructi
bility. The whole play is a testa
ment of faith in humanity.
“The Skin of Our ’Peeth” is won.
derfully wise as well as hilarious.
It reaches out to every heart with
its warm and vital appeal.
The Antrobus family will be
played by flane Marzoui as Mrs.
Antrobus, Roland Lashle,y, Ral
eigh Little Theatre actor, as Mr.
Antrobus, Polly Cozart as Gladys
Antrobus, Kurt Newman as Henry
Antrobus, and Paula Edmunds as

Sidney Poitier and a host of
British actors star in E. R. Braith
Waite’s To Sir With Love. Poitier
plays the part of Mr. Thackery,
a newly graduate engineer who
takes a teaching position in one
of London’s slum schools to earn
his liv’ing while looking for a bet
ter .job as an engineer.
To Sir With Love is a fair.v tale
telling of a young man’s desire to
make all bad good and the fulfill,
inent of this wish. The movie is a
fairy tale not because of the prob
lenis posed to Jlr. Thaekerv but
because he is able to solve all of
them with such ease.
Mr. Thackery enters his cla.ss of
hoodlums green and .scared, a sit
uation which enables his “stu
dents” to take over. Soon he lose.s
his temper and comes to the reali
zation that they will never use the
information given to them but
will need to know how to survive
III the fight for life. He waves his
magic wand and transposes his
juvenile deliiuiuents into bright
and shining cherubs. hVom here
lie proceeds to answer questions
about life and how to live it
