are you ready to regie?

Lots of interesting guesses, but the previous Regiequiz seems to have stumped our panel. The opera depicted is one that has become something of a favorite of revisionist directors, La Juive. You can see some of the more interesting bits of the staging in context in this video from the Staatsoper Stuttgart:

And now on with the game. Can you name this opera?

    Without reading the other comments, has to be Salome.

    I still think this is Dialogue of the Carmelites: the first picture is the death of the old Prioress (wearing the crown) with Blanche and Mother Marie; the second picture is Blanche’s father and brother awaiting her entrance, and the final picture is the death of the Carmelites by being pushed out of a big window. Why can’t anyone see this?

    This production looks beautiful. I’d love to see a Magic Flute or a Frau done in this style.

    I regret to say I like the Rheingold guess better than mine. They look like they are going off to valhalla at the end. If it’s no longer a guess, that’s regrettable.

    Probably some German taken on Suor Angelica in which some of the nuns were replaced by monks.
