THE CIHUOUS SAVAGE Bizemfe Yet Charming -Tanya Schlam, Florence Does the outside world sometimes seem more in- sane than an asylum? Wouldn't you like to be pro- tected against uncertainty and accident? To find con- tentment? Or would you rather make your peace with loneliness? In The Curious Savage , this year's fall play, this was the dilemma faced by the lead Mrs. Savage fAimee Boltzj. Mrs. Savage had been placed in an insane asylum by her greedy children because she spent money foolishly. The atmosphere of the asylum was content and loving but a little bizarre. There was Fairy Mae fLaura McMichaelJ, the child who refused to grow up. Mrs. Paddy Uenny Yeohj, who gave up elec- tricity for Lent and hated everythingin the world. jeff lBobby Pickardj was the war veteran who couldn't come to grips with reality and Hannibal Games Clon- ingerj, the mathematician, played 'one discordant note on the violin bringing melody to the morning for Florence-me. Florence was raising her son John Thomas to appreciate the classics and attend Princeton. Unfortunately, he caught the measles walk- ing on the carpet barefoot. QDon't tell Florence, but John Thomas is really only a baby doll. The others pretended for her sakelj Mrs. Savage had to choose between living in the safe environment of the asylum, with people that were yes, a little disturbed, but definitely human or, she could live in the real world. Mrs. Savage knew that, though the asylum was comforting and safe, she did not belong. She was more fit to live on her own, in the world filled with selfish and unhappy people, like her children. I know that a lot of people left The Curious Saogage baffled. It was a pretty off the wall show but it was a warm and funny play that encouraged you to both laugh and consider life. 84 PERFORMING ARTS: The Curious Savage l i V 2 Q 5 E 2 R r t v y CURIOUS SAVAGE CREW- Row 1: Robin Marshall, Kati Nowlin, Erica Thomas, Adrienne Tabakow.
