One of the first things we discussed when we met for our first rehearsal is how we were going to design the setting. It's clear that Stop Kiss takes place in the 1990s, so that already gave us a lot of inspiration. Our particular scene takes place in Callie's apartment, and mostly on her pull-out couch. It would be really fun to do this scene with a pull-out couch, but since that isn't possible, we will be using a sheet on the ground instead. I'm really interested in how this will play into our blocking, especially with the suggestions Rebecca gave us during our first two minutes. Positioning the girls on the couch versus the floor in various moments will definitely lend to the idea of power, and what girl has what status from moment-to-moment. So far, we have a list of props that we would like for the scene:
- playing cards
- wine bottles
- couch
- wine glasses
- plant
- pillows
- 2 sheets
- rug
Moving forward, I am looking forward to focusing on the massive amounts of subtext in the scene, how the power dynamics shift throughout the scene, how Callie's objective and obstacle weigh on her, and how we can make the end of the scene impactful.
