The Blue Angel

Abstract

Milan Uhde, born in 1936, is a Czech essayist, poet and playwright. He has also written extensively for radio, film and television, and fringe theatres in Brno, where he still lives. Since 1969 his work has appeared only in samizdat or abroad. His ‘monodrama’ The Blue Angel was purposely written in the most simple theatrical form to allow performance without a stage — for instance in private flats.
