Welcome to The Savoy Company of Philadelphia, The World's Oldest Theater Company Performing the Works of Gilbert and Sullivan!

The Savoy Company of Philadelphia, Resident Company of Philadelphia Theatre Company, is pleased to present Ruddigore, or The Witch’s Curse.  Gilbert & Sullivan’s satiric musical operetta is fully-staged, featuring a stunning, professionally designed set, beautiful costumes, and a live professional orchestra.

The Baronets of Ruddigore are cursed. Anyone who succeeds to the title must commit a crime every day — or perish in inconceivable agony.  A witch’s curse, a shy farmer, his supposed best friend, a prim and proper girl, a bad Baronet, a wild, mad girl, and a terrible secret upend this musical melodrama.  Will Good become bad?  Will Bad become good?  Only the ghosts will tell.
