Under her sole occupancy the hotel is falling apart and sliding even deeper into decadence. There is no future and no hope until a young woman arrives with a fortune to spend. What follows is a riot of confusion and mistaken identities, satirising the despair and futility of a continent poised on the brink of fascism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHorv疸h (1901-1938) was accidentally killed in Paris after fleeing from the Nazis. \u003ci\u003eThe Belle Vue\u003c\/i\u003e, one of 16 plays, was not performed until 1969.
