The Show looked like this:

Dame Hannah explains why the Baronets of
Ruddigore are so bad

Old Adam is shocked by Robin's suggestion
Richard Dauntless salutes his bride-to-be
Mad Margaret. Say no more
The city gents wow the country girls
Sir Despard and Dick Dauntless plot
The bridegroom-to-be arrives
The ghostly ancestors arrive to sort out Sir Ruthven
Mad Margaret is now under control
