Gilbert & Sullivan Society of Maine - Ruddigore 2025 |
| Directed by Deiran Manning Friday, March 7 & 14 7:00pm, Saturday, March 8 & 15 2:00pm, Sunday, March 9 & 16 2:00pm A jilted bride driven to madness, a baronet cursed to perform wicked deeds, a local guild of disgruntled professional bridesmaids, the village beauty held hostage by etiquette, the shy farmer she loves, the heroic sailor prepared to sacrifice friendship to win her hand, and ghosts! An ancient witch’s curse has condemned each heir of Ruddigore to commit a crime a day or perish in agony. Refusing to submit to this fate, the latest baronet of Ruddigore fakes his death and goes into hiding in the local village as timid farmer Robin Oakapple leaving his younger brother, Sir Despard, to shoulder the family curse. When his identity is betrayed, will the shy and honest Robin be able to stomach the family tradition of moustache-twirling villainy-for-life or will his exasperated ancestors return from the grave to haunt him? Gilbert and Sullivan’s satirical take on Melodrama and the Victorian obsession with the supernatural, Ruddigore turns the gothic romance tropes of Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Picture of Dorian Gray on their head in this zany comedy operetta that will delight the whole family. $20 Adults, $12 Students, $8 Youth (12 & under) Reserved Seating | |
