Not a Regie quiz, but worthy of note for the “what were they thinking” factor. Here’s a production of Otello directed by the usually visually acute Paul Curran.

From left to right, we have Desdemona as Helen Mirren in Caligula; Roderigo as the young Vanessa Redgrave, and of course poor Emilia, who couldn’t quite make up her mind between Wowkle and Brangäne.
