Well, Sanford definitely wins the prize for the best mot of the week (in addition to his uncontested status as biggest ‘mo of the year) for his comment about last week’s Regie quiz. The opera pictured above is apparently taking place in a rehearsal hall, so he guessed it must be called Zar und Mary Zimmerman. And so, in La Cieca’s heart of hearts, so this opera shall always be known, even though, in point of prosaic fact, it was really Louise. 

Fans of the prosaic (and you know who you are) are warned that this week’s puzzler is, well, puzzling. (And do let’s keep it that way, those of you who recognize these photos: hold your tongues, and allow the guessers to guess.)
