Yes, on second thoughts I really shouldn't have included opera in there. Opera directors are notorious, though admittedly less likely to change the text. And even musicals aren't safe; Switzerland is currently staging a modern dress version of Tanz der Vampire set in a sanatorium (I really want to see it).
I feel for that teacher - taking pupils to the theatre is hard enough without getting unexpected Eliot in your Schiller!
