The Curious Savage
by John Patrick
directed by Susan Carlson
When Ethel Savage finds herself widowed and the recipient of a sizable inheritance, she endeavors to establish a fund to grant wishes and dreams to average people. Her step-children, horrified at the perceived misuse of their rightful inheritance, have Mrs. Savage committed to The Cloisters, a sanatorium. The amusing contrast between the step-children and the residents of The Cloisters will make audiences question what is considered “sanity”.
