On city bus line 608

Inferno 608

A moving performance in the Athenian underworld

Where
City bus line 608, Athens
Inspired by
Dante’s Inferno
Format
Performance in motion

Nine circles. Nine stops. A city bus becomes an ark of the damned.

For the first time, the historic 608 bus veers off its regular route. Spectator-passengers experience a live performance in motion, transforming the city bus into an ark of the damned; souls still striving to narrate their torment of waiting, of routine repetition, in places where even sunlight never reaches.

A secret new route takes us through the nine circles of Dante’s Hell.

The bus arrives, the audience boards, and the journey begins.

  • Nine Circles.
  • Nine Stops.

As the route deepens and the bus disappears, beasts and tormented souls become fellow passengers.

How — and by what means — is the greatest inhuman creation of the human mind, sin, ever repaid?

Perhaps there truly is a Hell out there.
Perhaps we are already living in it every day.
