Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic operetta “Ruddigore, or The Witch’s Curse,” is a satire of melodrama. Familiar characters like the virtuous village maiden, the honest sailor, the madwoman, and the wicked baronet are skewered by Gilbert’s rapier wit, while the score features Sullivan’s delicious harmonies and tuneful ballads, to say nothing of the Act 2 tour de force, “The Ghost’s High Noon.” This is the most ambitious staging that Opera-Lytes has attempted in 28 years of producing Gilbert and Sullivan: a ghostly picture gallery comes to life!
