A play by A. A. Milne.
The action of the play takes place in Noah's house.

The Bible tells us of the command to Noah 'Make thee an ark', but we are not told how Noah's family received the news that there would be a flood which would drown the whole world. Did they really believe in Noah's prophetic dream? How was the ark to be built? Who would called the animals together and make sure that only two of each were taken on board? How was Noah's wife to tackle the problem of providing a year's supply of food for all the animals and the family? This gentle comedy shows Noah and his wife with their three sons and daughters-in-law as people who, with all-too-human frailty, do their best to interpret and carry out the command. (Mary Maxted)
