The Plastic People of the Universe (PPU) is a Czech rock band from Prague. It was the foremost representative of Prague's underground culture (1968–1989), which had gone against the grain of Czechoslovakia's Communist regime. Due to their non-conformism, members of the band often suffered serious repercussions such as arrests. The group continues to perform despite the death of its founder, main composer and bassist, Milan "Mejla" Hlavsa in 2001.

-After Milan Hlavsa's death, the Plastic People began to write new songs. The also performed some of their older albums with several orchestras (such as Agon Orchestra). This was Milan Hlavsa's long time plan, one he didn't have the chance to achieve. In 2004 the Plastic People introduced an orchestral version of "The Passion Play". In 2005 and 2011 they performed "Jak bude po smrti". In 2014 they introduced an orchestral version of "Co znamená vésti koně?", alongside the Brno Philharmonic orchestra.

 Interest in the band was rekindled in 2006 thanks to a new play, "Rock 'n' Roll" by Tom Stoppard, in which two of their recordings are featured. They are also playing a few songs live in Czech performances in the Czech National Theatre.<sup>[2]</sup> The play's characters also discuss at length the music of the Plastics and its effects on Czech society. The Plastics performed in London for the first time in January 2007 with Turnová on bass.
