If a production is counter to the composer's explicit directions, does not convey story content, or presents a perverse, contrived, or mostly incomplete version of the work's message, it should never be staged in the first place, nor is it likely to endure.
I think this is what Chris means by "Eurotrash" direction, a waste of everyone's time and money.

won't be "disappointed" by anything resembling novelty, imagination, or innovation.

...that the novelty, imagination and innovation is executed at the expense of tradition and historical accuracy. Instead of mucking with classic art, the contemporary productions should start with NEW music and NEW operas -- expand the art form, rather than taking the lazy route and doing half the job. Let's deface the Mona Lisa and call it postmodernism. That way, we can call a crime art.
