To the gratuitous nudity and insufferable nihilism, I'd add the gratuitous anachronisms and the (also gratuitous!) deviations from original plot-lines found in most Eurotrash productions today, regardless of whether or not nudity or nihilism come into play.
Deconstructionism and Post-modernism: I sure wish they'd finish running their course! ;-)

I'm all for lots of nudity, gratuitous or otherwise, in opera and theater, dance and other performance art. Just think of the audiences orchestras would draw if all those babes of yours performed nude!
More seriously, it's not the nudity that bugs me about Eurotrash staging, it's the perversion of original plots into socio-political commentary.

I think what gets me is ignoring the libretto in order to be "fresh".
I don't like it when the surtitles/translations have nothing to do with what is happening on stage.
