Tybee Arts Performing Society Announces Spring Production of The Curious Savage
Casting has begun for Tybee Arts Performing Society’s Spring Production of The Curious Savage a comedy written by playwright John Patrick. Rehearsals begin in mid March.
The Curious Savage takes place in the 1950’s. It is a warm-hearted tale of Mrs. Ethel Savage – a slightly eccentric, extremely wealthy widow. Being the recipient of her late husband’s estate she wants to make the best use of it, despite her greedy step children’s selfish attempts to get their hands on it. She has all the money put into negotiable bonds and hides it in a fund to help others realize their hopes and dreams.
The family of Mrs. Savage committed to a “Sanatorium” planning to keep her there until she discloses where she hid the bonds, but they don’t count her befriending all the “Crazies.”
Playwright John Patrick wrote the script primarily as a comedy to set up a contrast between the inmates and Mrs. Savage’s stepchildren. By the end of the play, the audience discovers who the crazy ones really are.
Production dates are scheduled for April 23rd – 24th, April 25th, April 30th, May 1st & 2nd at the Tybee Arts Center Black Box Theater on Cedarwood Ave., Tybee Island, GA.
