What is it like to live in a city? Every day is a hustle, the world seems busy and glamorous, yet when you return home, you may feel an inexplicable sense of emptiness.

In Plug-in City, you are invited to explore the depths of urban life.
You’ll find yourself in a mysterious bar where the bartender asks, “How was your day? What’s on your mind lately?” Based on your answer, the bartender crafts a unique cocktail for you.

The cocktails include: 200 Bosses, Bloody Ears, Unemployed Neuron, Muddy Friend, Gone with the Sigh

After enjoying your drink, you choose a keyword that you wish to explore: Security, Communication, Truth, Escape, or Power. Within the performance space, five characters embody these keywords, and your perspective on them shifts according to your chosen keyword.

As part of this experience, you will use a smartphone or tablet equipped with a special application to engage with the performance. Depending on your keyword, you may need to observe, deduce, and uncover hidden secrets.

You have 60 minutes to immerse yourself in the space, and how you spend this time is entirely up to you. Your choices will shape your unique experience.
