I spend a lot of time on buses in Dalian. Living on Heishijiao and studying downtown adds up to about two hours a day dealing with public transport. I’ve written about it before, so I thought I’d give my students a chance to explain the situation.

For my English majors’ final project, I asked them to perform a short play explaining some part of their lives in Dalian. Most have been in the city for two years, unless they grew up there. Four groups used the bus as their lens. This is what they produced (with me filming and editing).

A bad day on the 801:

People on the Bus

A thief on the bus

The Heroic Bus Driver

All in all, I was pretty satisfied with most of the performances. Most of the videos are now on YouTube, and are available at my channel page. Enjoy.
