Angeleo

GUnaGU, Bratislava, 1996
Author: Viliam Klimáček
Directed by Viliam Klimáček

about the production

Viliam Klimáček defines Angeleo as a socalled “industrial ballad of Slovak mountains and factories in 1948. Marginal artistic genres are so beloved by me. By the way, we are "the theatre of the suburbs". To explain the expression "marginal", this play interweaves a fairy-tale (Tales by Dobšinský, a sado-masochistic body full of magic and heathens) with decaying art (a socialist realism piece with all of the related phenomena very socialist for example factory's chimneys singing...).
