Savage House

Synopsis

Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive pox outbreak, and Jacobite uprising, this is the timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage (Richard E. Grant) and Lady Savage (Claire Foy) and their blind pursuit of a better life.

It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power.

“Plenty of spectacle and satire” (The Sun)
“Tragic, moving and quite brilliant” (The Times)
“A riveting dark comedy so rich it’ll make you sick” (Mashable)
“Richard E. Grant and Claire Foy put the filth in filthy rich in this grimly compelling period comedy” (Observer)
