Girton Musical Theatre (formerly Girton Operatic)


2015: Ruddigore

The ghosts

What is a company of professional bridesmaids to do when the most eligible girl in the village refuses to get married? What is worse is that the village is ruled by a bad baronet, and the men of the village are a rather wooden, quiet bunch. Small wonder that their thoughts turn to glitter, music and an escape to “Strictly” stardom. Why are the local gentry similarly obsessed with dancing fame? Who will win the glitter ball trophy? What has happened to drive one girl mad, and why are the Baronets of Ruddigore set on a life of crime?

Add in some of Gilbert's best-loved characters and Sullivan's catchy tunes, and the stage is set for an enjoyable evening of music and humour.
