Curious About the Curious Savage

If your significant other were to pass away, and leave you ten million dollars what would you do? Madison High School is finding out as they settle in for their fall drama, “The Curious Savage.” 

“The Curious Savage” is about an elderly widow, Ethel P. Savage, who inherits $10 Million from her husband and wants to donate it to people who want to chase their “foolish dreams,” but her stepchildren are against that idea, and their greedy intentions are shown throughout the play. 

Erin Scheier, a senior at MHS takes the lead role and brings comedic and exciting energy to the show. Athena Macagnano is Ethel’s nurse who provides care and comfort on stage.  “The Curious Savage” is being produced by Jaquelynne Radcliff, her fourth play at MHS. When asked how this play stands out from the others she has produced, Ms. Radcliff replied, ¨Well, this play was interesting, as almost anyone in the audience could relate to a character in the play, despite it being a comedy¨

The first showing was last night, but there is still a chance to see the show tonight, Friday, 11/18, and tomorrow. If you would like to see this performance, tickets are $10 for staff and students, and $15 for General Admission. Tickets are available now (click here to purchase).
