THE CURIOUS SAVAGE
Ethel P. Savage, tells the story of an elderly woman whose husband recently died and left her approximately ten million dollars. 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. Hilarity abounds. June 13-29
