Austrian stage actor and writer (1826–1896)

Alois Berla (7 March 1826 – 16 February 1896) was an Austrian actor and playwright.

He was born in Vienna, and was trained to be a musician; he became an actor, his stage debut being in the German Theatre, Pest [de] in Hungary in 1847, in his own play Der letzte Zopf. The play was successful, and he was engaged as a playwright and actor in the Theater an der Wien in Vienna, appearing there from 1848. He wrote and translated a large number of plays in the genre of Old Viennese Folk Theatre [de]; he is said to have written more than 130 works. Music for these was composed by Adolf Müller, Franz von Suppé, Anton M. Storch and Carl Millöcker.
