Subway Plays: An App Play Review

Experience New York City's subway system in a unique way with Subway Plays, an innovative app that offers a fully immersive auditory journey along the 7, N, and L train lines. Using just a set of headphones, users can engage with a specially recorded production where the surrounding sights, sounds, and even scents enhance the storytelling.

This app provides a self-scheduled performance option, allowing users to choose their ride times—day or night—which in turn influences the overall experience. The flexibility to explore various routes at your convenience adds to its appeal. As an emerging genre of theatre, podplays leverage mobile technology to create site-specific audio-based narratives that redefine traditional theatrical boundaries.
