“This place is a madhouse!” Curious Savage The Junior Play, John Patricks’ “The Curious Savage,” was both an artistic and a financial success. The setting is an institution, called the Cloisters, and the plot evolves around the e (Torts of an un- scrupulous family to deprive an old, eccentric heir- ess, Mrs. Savage, of her fortune. Their attempts are foiled by Mrs. Savage and her friends, who are men- tally disturbed. The play provides many hilarious, as well as poignant scenes. This mixture of fun and serious- ness kept the audience enchanted. Outstanding in their portrayals of Mrs. Savage and the silent Mrs. Paddy, were Sheri DePew and Karen Canino. They received excellent support from the other members of the cast. Directing the play was Mrs. Agnes Lynch.
