Hole in the Wall Theater Presenting “The Curious Savage”
New Britain’s Hole in the Wall Theater is to present John Patrick’s “The Curious Savage,” a play that it says, “calls into question conventional definitions of sanity while lampooning celebrity culture.”
The Theater says, of that play, that,
Mrs. Savage has been left ten million dollars by her husband and wants to make the best use of it, in spite of her grown-up stepchildren’s efforts to use it for themselves. The stepchildren commit Mrs. Savage to a sanatorium, hoping to “bring her to her senses.” In the sanatorium Mrs. Savage meets various social misfits, people who need the help Mrs. Savage can provide. Contrasting the kindness and loyalty of psychiatric patients with the avarice and vanity of “respectable” public figures, it calls into question conventional definitions of sanity while lampooning celebrity culture.
The play is to open on December 1, 2023 and run through December 16th.
