Polite society has never been so savage. Golden Globe nominee Claire Foy (The Crown, First Man) and Oscar nominee Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me) co-star in this dark, timely satire; a madcap play on class and power.
18th century England. Amid a pox outbreak and the Jacobite uprising, Sir Chauncey Savage (Grant) and Lady Savage (Foy) are at their lowest: they despise each other, their house is falling apart, and they are loathed by polite society. Oh, and Chauncey Savage’s foot might be rotting off. Then, they receive news of a visit from high(er) ranking nobility – renewing their energy to find new outfits, polish the silver, and bring in new help to ensure the House of Savage is looking as impressive as possible.
