The "Curious Savage" is pleasant entertainment with oddly likablecharm. Its heroine is an elderly lady with a fortune who wants to spendher money enabling people to do the odd and impractical things for whichthey have always yearned. Her practical step children want to put heraway until she surrenders her millions to them. However. the lady likesher fellow inmates so well that she hates to leave her confinement. It isa curiously funny comedy that is warm and friendly about kind hearts andgentle people.

"Curious Savage" is only the third play to be chosen for a secondproduction by Red Mask. It was previously given at the Palace Theatrein 1955.
It has been a pleasure to work with the talented cast and crew ofthis production. Although veterans are among them, it has been extremelysatisfying to have several newcomers exhibit equal dedication to the taskof making this play come alive.
The gentle inmates of "The Cloisters" are people of warmth anddignity. You may wonder if the insane world is not really that which liesoutside the walls which surround their "Home."

A play comes to life only when the reader or actor is in sympathy withthe playwright's intentions. The wrong interpretation of a play distortsits meaning. Overemphasis where none was intended destroys the delicatebalance of values and the play then becomes either pointless or in badtaste.
It is important in "The Curious Savage" that the gentle inmates of"The Cloisters" be played with warmth and dignity. Their "Home" isnot an "asylum" nor are these good people "lunatics." Any exaggerationof the roles will rob them of charm and humor. The whole point of theplay is to contrast them with Mrs. Savage's children and the insane out-side world. To depart from this point of view for the sake of easy laughswill rob the play of meaning. And both the performers and the play-wright will have failed in their purpose.
