Who are the sane ones?
This is a question the audi
ence may ask as they watch
the Matanuska Valley Theatre
Guild production of John Pat
rick’s “The Curious Savage” to
morrow and Saturday evenings
in Central School gymnasium.
Curtain time is at 8 p.m.
The play takes place in a pri
vate institution for mental pa
tients, with the plot centering
about Mrs. Savage, committed
by her greedy stepchildren be
cause of her eccentric handling
of the familly fortune left to
her by her late husband.
Mrs. Savage, played by Mid
ge Melendy who directed the
popular “Lo and Behold” last
spring, finds unexpected allies
in the gentle inmates of the in
stitution in her plot to outwit
the scheming Savages. Barbara
Hamilton, who played in the
first Guild production, “Blithe
Spirit,” is the vehemently sil
ent Mrs. Paddy; Gladys Hayes
(True Blue and Trusted) plays
Florence, an inmate with moth
erly tendencies; Harry Evans
(Lo and Behold) is “violinist”
Hannibal; Harold Newcomb
(True Blue and Trusted) plays
the handsome war victim; and
Suzi Moffitt, new to the Guild,
is the captivating Fairy Mae.
Larry Kincaid (Lo and Behold)
is Titus Savage, the judge; Bar
bara Lacher, innocent maiden
of “True Blue and Trusted,”
pulls a switch as the much
married divorcee, Lily Belle
Savage; and another newcom
er, Dean Bronson, plays Sam
uel Savage, the Senator. Lucy
Mick, director of “Charlie’s
Aunt,” has replaced Frances
Plack as the Doctor, and Nor
ma Marshall is capably handl
ing the role of Miss Willie, the
nurse.
Marziah Miller (Charlie’s
Aunt) directs, stage designers
Jack Riley and Dick Miller
have created a charming set,
John Koranda is handling the
lighting, Delores Lucas is
prompter, Marie Guffey and
Dick Miller will do makeup,
and Jack and Thelma Riley are
in charge of publicity.
There's- nothing wrong in
building air castles, but don’t
use gold bricks in their con
struction.
