Narrative:
Departed rksi runway 33L behind a B777. During climb at 2000 MSL we encountered wake turbulence that caused our aircraft to roll to the right with 30 [degree] bank followed by rapid roll left with 30 [degree] bank and rapid pitch down. First officer was hand flying during encounter. I called 'stay off rudders' as aircraft was rolling left and pitching down and took control of aircraft. I neutralized the controls and about this time we flew out of encounter. Gave aircraft back to first officer and continued with flight.
