DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: \nWe still have room for a few more cars on this ride – the weather is predicted to be the best of the entire holiday weekend\, colors enroute are starting to pop\, the road conditions look great and this ride should be very fun.

Once there\, you’ll have several hours to explore the working farm\, watch Shaker craftsmen in action\, and enjoy the many exhibits.\n\n\n\n\nOnsite refreshments are available at the village’s restaurant and ice cream shop\, perfect for a relaxing break before we head back.

DESCRIPTION:Had 10 people\nSunday February 23\, 2025 concert 1:30 P.M. to 4:00 P.M.\nJoin Bob and Me for an afternoon show and dinner.\n \nTICKETS:\nTicket are now available to purchase.\n$45 true cost option\n$30 regular adult\n$25 student/seniors\n$20 supported\nTo purchase tickets: \nhttps://sudburysavoyards.org/ruddigore-2025/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1ykCXc3An3anjQgbG4nls935ScAVtN97kLcnEZUtd-bW1LD5MNLpnbzDE_aem_wl1jxBuh_YYZhu6NOv9ayA\nSYNOPSIS\n“Ruddigore\, or The Witch’s Curse” was the 10th collaboration between Gilbert and Sullivan. The operetta is a parody of the stock melodrama — the villain who carries off the maiden; the priggishly good-mannered poor-but-virtuous-heroine; the hero in disguise\, and his faithful old retainer who dreams of their former glory days; the snake in the grass who claims to be following his heart; the wild\, mad girl; the swagger of fire-eating patriotism; ghosts coming to life to enforce a curse; and so forth. But as one critic noted\, Gilbert turns the moral absolutes of melodrama upside down: Good becomes bad\, bad becomes good\, and heroes take the easy way out. The Baronets of Ruddigore are cursed. Anyone who succeeds to the title has to commit a crime every day — or perish in inconceivable agony. Robin Oakapple\, a young farmer\, loves Rose Maybud\, but both are too shy to tell the other. But Robin has a secret. He is really Sir Ruthven Murgatroyd\, the rightful Baronet of Ruddigore\, in disguise. His younger brother\, Despard\, believing Ruthven to be dead\, has assumed the title. Robin’s foster brother\, Richard\, seeking Rose for himself\, tells Despard of Robin’s deception\, and Robin is forced to accept his true position\, losing Rose to Richard in the process. Now the Baronet of Ruddigore\, Robin is confronted by the ghosts of his ancestors who step from their picture frames in the gallery of Ruddigore Castle to confront him for failing to conscientiously commit his daily crime. Robin eventually finds a way of satisfying his ancestors demands whilst continuing to live a blameless life.\nDinner:\nEvviva Trattoria Maynard 5 Digital Way\, Maynard\, MA 01754\nIf you would like to join us for dinner after the show\, please RSVP to me before February 19\, 2025 so I can give a final head count to the restaurant.\nbgauvin@charter.net
