2010-2011, 2011-2012 2012-2013 with too many consonants [Eastern and Central Europe] :)

Central and Eastern Europe are not only reservoir of extraordinary singers and brilliant directors. They  too produce some wonderful shows. Only this season the first ever Wozzeck was staged in Moscow, directed by Dima Tcherniakov - no less! Tcherniakov's Tristan at Mariinsky was very starry as René Pape was the King Marke for a few shows... The new production of Les Troyens by La Fura dels Baus was premiered at Mariinsky. Good shows were staged in Budapest by very talented Balasz Kovalik. Narodowa Opera in Warsaw is one of the most creative places in Europe right now...

Janacek is everywhere in Prague: maybe not in their opera program, but definitely on one of many delicious beers [Janaceks own a famous brewery in Czech]

Prague National Theatre Opera

• Ariane/The Nightingale (operas by Bohuslav Martinů/Stravinsky) [dir xxx] cond. Tomáš Netopil
• Elisir d'amore [dir xxx] cond: xxx 
• Parsifal [dir Jiří Heřman] cond. John Fiore

Practically run by the travel agencies (who bring tourists to see whatever the show's programed), this theater is less and less interesting artistically ---> it's not surprising that  their website is so bad (not because of bad design, but more because of the lack of information).  For good productions of good operas by Janacek,  Prague is not the place to go...

Slovak National Theater

• I due Foscari [dir Marian Chudovsky]  
• The Little Sweep [dir Jan Uliciansky] 
• Manon Lescaut [dir Jiri Nekvasil] 
• Der Rosenkavalier [dir Andrejs Zagars] cond. Janos Kovacs

Mariinsky Theatre

• Atilla [dir Arturo Gama] dir Luciano di Martino

They have a very rich program but this is the only opera I found with a label "new production" in 2010-2011. 
Their's must be the clearest web-site of all the opera houses around! For each opera you could see who created it and when, if it's co-produced and who with..., with detailed but down to the point information. Way to go!

Bolshoi Theater

• Don Giovanni [dir Dmitry Tcherniakov] cond. Theodor Curretzis
• The Golden Cockerel [dir Kirill Serebryanikov] cond Wassily Sinaysky

World premiere of the new opera by Philippe Fénelon "La Cerisaie" in concert, will take place at Bolshoi in December 2010. From the same article we learn that Tcherniakov will direct new production of Ruslan and Ludmila and the premiere is scheduled for November 2011, with Vladimir Jurowski conducting.

Opera Narodowa in Warsaw

• Die Passagierin [dir David Pountney] with Elena Kelessidi, Artur Ruciński, Svetlana Doneva,  Roberto Sacca among others
• Le Nozze di Figaro [dir Keith Warner] with Aleksandra Kurzak et al.
• Les Troyens [dir La Fura dels Baus] with Sylvie Brunet et al Valery Gergiev will conduct
• Turandot [dir Mariusz Trelinski]
• Jakob Lenz (an opera by Wolfgang Rihm) [dir Natalia Korczakowska]
• King Roger [dir David Pountney] with Scott Hendricks, Olga Pasiecznik, and Will Hartmann

Fantastic program in Warsaw. They are clearly catching up and getting to the very best of what the world of opera can offer today. Keep up the good work!

The Latvian National Opera

• Eugene Onegin [dir Andrejs Žagars] cond Mikhail Tatarnikov 
• Il Barbiere di Siviglia [dir Aik Karapetian]   
• The Werewolves' Heiress [dir Ināra Slucka] cond. Andrejs Jansons (Maris' kin?!)  
• A Midsummer Night's Dream [dir xxx ]

NB: 2 revivals with Marina Rebeka! Excellent website.
