Play Description:
After Callie, a jaded New Yorker, meets Sara, a visiting elementary school teacher,
the two unexpectedly fall in love. Their first kiss in a public park in New York City
provokes a violent attack that transforms their lives in a way they could never anticipate.
Told through a series of nonlinear vignettes, Stop Kiss is poignant and has a surprising amount of humor. There is no physical violence on
stage; the attack on Callie and Sara is described, not enacted.

About the Drama Program
Drama at Lower Columbia College offers courses designed to provide students with an
understanding of the theatre and an appreciation of theatre, acting, technical theatre,
and production experience through performance. Students develop the ability to express
themselves in many ways: acting on stage, seminar discussion, play analysis, review
writing, script interpretation, kinesthetic expression, and technical proficiency
in set, costume, and light design.
One play is presented each quarter during the academic year. Participation is open
to all students, college employees and members of the local community.
Students interested in acting can complete an associate degree or begin studies to
transfer to a baccalaureate program. Drama courses can also be an important supplement
for those who plan to major in the humanities or social sciences.
