Bus Stop (Gao Xingjian play)

Bus Stop (Chinese; 車站 chezhan) is a 1983 Chinese-language play by Gao Xingjian.[1] The play was staged in the Loft Space of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, following a successful run of Gao’s second play Alarm Signal (Juedui xinhao). Before each performance Lu Xun's story The Passerby was read. Bus Stop was withdrawn under criticism after thirteen performances.[2][3]
