Curious Savage WITTY COMEDY WITH MEANING Mask and Sandal presented a humorous and meaningful spring play entitled Curi¬ ous Savage. Pam Bansbach played the leading role of Ethyl P. Savage with skill and poise. Her blue hair, colorful descrip¬ tions of her play production, and her teddy bear gave the audience much to laugh at.
