Book Reviews of The Curious Savage.

Book Review: A wonderful take on society
Summary: 5 Stars

Although this play takes place around 1950, it's certainly speaking through the ages. As someone who has read and also performed as Jeff in this play, you can relate the message of greed and want against our society. John Patrick takes a bunch of "Crazy People" and through them and Mrs. Savage and the Savage children shows us that all a human truly wants is to want nothing, but that's not possible. We need to strive for something in society, and sometimes that means being foolish...such as Mrs. Savage is. Everyone can relate to a character in this show, and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to do a show or read a play that is beautiful in it's meaning.
