Gilbert & Sullivan’s comic masterpiece melds the world of Jane Austen with a good old-fashioned English ghost story – spiced with just a dash of Wuthering Heights romance – in a gothic tale of upright Regency youths and maidens kept apart by propriety, social convention, and a ghastly witch’s curse.
Follow sweet Rose Maybud, her painfully shy suitor Robin Oakapple, brash Dick Dauntless, wicked baronet Sir Despard, crazy Mad Margaret, and an enitre chorus of ghostly bad baronets through the twists and turns of Gilbert’s topsy-turvy plot set to Sullivan’s unforgettable score. Will Robin be forced to commit a deadly crime every day and lose Rose’s love forever? Come and find out!
