Who Played Dame Hannah in Ruddigore

Dame Hannah is a role in Ruddigore, a opera that opened Broadway in 1936.

Opera North make a welcome return to the Grand Opera House in 2012 with their acclaimed production of Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore. Sir Despard Murgatroyd is a man under pressure. He has inherited a witch’s curse forcing him to commit a crime a day or die in agony. So it’s a huge relief when shy Robin Oakapple is revealed as his long-lost elder brother – true inheritor of the curse. Robin’s chances with the prim Rose Maybud look doomed, but his troubles really start when his feeble crimes drag his exasperated ancestors back from the dead...
