[[Ruddigore]], or 'Ruddygore' (as it was originally spelled and, thus, adopted as the title of this production) was performed in the [[Annex Theatre]] on 14th-17th February 2018. The score was adapted by [[Isaac Treuherz]] for a folk band, with the set and costumes following this folkish aesthetic, with vines and flowers in abundance. | [[Ruddigore]], or 'Ruddygore' (as it was originally spelled and, thus, adopted as the title of this production) was performed in the [[Annex Theatre]] on 14th-17th February 2018.

We also examined the characters, their motivations and interpretations and discovered interesting insights into their thoughts and wants, the stories they tell. A major change in terms of the characters was gender swapping the character of Dick Dauntless to 'Fanny Fearless', played by [[Abby Pardoe]], which opened up new avenues of interpretation. Moreover, the chorus was reworked so there was a full SATB chorus in both Act I and II, allowing for not only more harmony options, but also the inclusion of village men in the bridesmaid songs and female baronets in the Ghost songs. | We also examined the characters, their motivations and interpretations and discovered interesting insights into their thoughts and wants, the stories they tell.
