RHS Fall Play: The Curious Savage
When Ethel Savage's late husband leaves her a small fortune, she decides to make the best of it, establishing a fund to support various dreamers with whimsical aspirations. But her three greedy stepchildren – a socialite, a senator, and a judge – commit her to a mental institution, hoping to "bring her to her senses." In the sanitarium, a warm and inviting home known as "The Cloisters," Ethel befriends the other "guests," a colorful crew of kind, generous and delusional souls. In time, Ethel finds happiness with them and plans to spend the rest of her life among them.
Meanwhile, the stepchildren, discovering that Ethel has hidden the family fortune, attempt to browbeat her into confessing where the money has been stashed. Unaffected, Ethel maintains her dignity and leads them on a wild goose chase. In the end, Ethel and her friends successfully thwart the stepchildren, and Ethel is declared sane; she is free to live her life as she chooses.
