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 URL:https://massmiata.net/event/february-23-2025-sunday-gilbert-sullivan-ruddigore/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250202T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250202T180000 DTSTAMP:20260403T150648 CREATED:20250128T020826Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250531T184829Z UID:24283-1738512000-1738519200@massmiata.net SUMMARY:February 2\, 2025 Riverside Renaissance Swing Band DESCRIPTION:Had 14 people\nOur club member Jack Austin will be playing in the concert \n \nA CONCERT  \n“A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME”  \n18 JAZZ MUSICIANS PARTNERNING WITH  \nFIRST CHURCH SWAMPSCOTT  \n40 Monument Ave.  \nSUNDAY February 2nd  \nAt 4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M.  \nTO BENEFIT:\nCALIFORNIA WILDFIRES 2025 \nA FUND THOUGH THE NATIONAL UCC \n100 % OF THE FUNDS GO TO THE FIR VICTIMS \nSUGGESTED DONATIONS $20.00 \n  \n  \n  URL:https://massmiata.net/event/february-2-2025-riverside-renaissance-swing-band-2/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250111T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250111T220000 DTSTAMP:20260403T150648 CREATED:20230727T153633Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241221T191430Z UID:21551-1736618400-1736632800@massmiata.net SUMMARY:January 11\, 2025 Saturday MMC Annual Holiday Party booking is now available DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \n \n  \nThe Mass Miata Holiday Party will be on Saturday January 11\, 2025 and will be held at The Inn at East Hill Farms in Troy\, NH for a two night stay.
