Borrowed from German Regietheater (“director's theater”).

Regietheater (uncountable)

1. (theater) The modern practice of allowing a director freedom to diverge from the original intentions of the playwright or operatist, for example by changing the geographical and chronological setting, or by adapting the work to highlight issues of race and gender.
