Bus Stop
Eight people wait at a stop on the edge of the city for a bus into town, and every bus that comes goes straight past. Bickering, hoping and explaining themselves, they stay at the roadside while a decade goes by; only the Silent Man, who says nothing and walks off early, is not there for it. Denounced during the campaign against spiritual pollution and pulled after a handful of performances.
