When Ethel Savage’s late husband leaves her a small fortune, she decides to make the best of it, establishing a fund to support various dreamers with whimsical aspirations. Her greedy step-children decide to admit her to a sanitarium to “bring her to her senses”. The Curious Savage celebrates those who are often overlooked, emphasizing kindness, affection and empathy in a world that too often rewards greed and ambition. John Patrick’s masterful comedy celebrates whimsy and skewers notions of “sanity” with warmth, humor and dignity.
