The current Baronet, Sir Ruthven Murgatroyd, is in love with a village maiden named Rose Maybud, but is afraid to reveal his true identity to her. Meanwhile, his younger brother, Despard, has been living a life of crime to avoid the curse.As the story unfolds, Despard's fianc�����e, Mad Margaret, reveals the truth about the curse to Rose, who then helps Sir Ruthven break the curse by revealing his true identity to the townspeople. The curse is lifted, and the Baronets are able to live happily ever after.Filled with witty dialogue, catchy tunes, and colorful characters, Ruddigore Or The Witch's Curse is a classic example of the Victorian-era comic opera genre.
