Not so many guesses for our most recent Regie quiz, so perhaps it’s not surprising that nobody identified the show as La finta giardiniera.

This week’s puzzler is a more familiar title, though that might be hard to guess at first glance.

iltenoredigrazia says:
The last two pictures could easily be Fidelio or Lohengrin. The first two pics could be Elektra.
Are the pictures in the right order? If not, it could be Lucia with the top pic the mad scene, but that would be way too easy.

Because the pics are so obviously happy and joyful, I’m going with Mikado. Or Dutchman.

Pic 1. Sarah Palin tries to flee the liberal elite media.
Pic 2. Sarah and Todd confer as still more ethics investigation papers are delivered.
Pic 3. Keith Olbermann and his staff get carried away with their mid-broadcast paper throw.
But I can’t figure out which opera this would be.
