Stop Kiss is a current drama about the humanity of developing homosexual loving relationships, sexuality, and the realities of violent crimes against women and the LGBT community. The play's scenes shift between two timelines: Sara and Callie's friendship before their attack, and Callie's aftermath as she deals with the attack and the realities of her relationship. The play’s nonlinear nature builds tension by withholding information, making me eager about what will happen next in the plot.
