NEXT STOP invited the audience of Amsterdam to take a seat inside a coach bus at dusk and carries them along a fictional narrative crossing the edges of the city. For this piece, we designed a ride that mixed fiction with real contexts and appropriated the imagination of the urban landscape and highlighted what is already present. Both the interior and the exterior of the couch are used as the stage, combining the natural experience of traveling by bus and the experience of being immersed in a cinematic narrative. Transit is the main concept in this project, both geographical and metaphysical, and is represented by the two characters that encounter each other along the ride.
