Rose Maybud (Annie Masters) and Robin Oakapple (Matt Sturgeon) in Southampton Operatic Society's cricket-themed Ruddigore (2008). Reduced orchestra arrangement courtesy of www.pattersong.co.uk
Robin Oakapple has to be one of the best roles in musical theatre.. You start as the wide-eyed innocent, with lots of pastoral tunes and skipping under the apple trees, then get to morph into Evil Sir Ruthven with all the melodrama and sulfurous lighting...... A lovely role totally wasted on men.! ;-)
lovely performance !!
