Where has my character just come from?
- After Sally's abortion, I feel like she would have needed some time to herself before returning to Cliff. When I think of Sally, I really notice her vulnerability, so to me she would have been sitting in a small cafe/bar thinking that one day she would love to become a mum, she just feels that it would ruin her showgirl persona, which she believes is her only source of income.
- The walls of the cafe/bar would be unpainted with just the bricks showing and the table would be cluttered with a small black handbag, her possessions (powder, lipstick, cigarette's) and bottles. She would have a cigarette in her hand, in her long cigarette holder, smoking very slowly, as if she's having a long, hard think about her life and how her decision will effect Cliff. She would be thinking about how the front she always has to put on, is becoming draining, and that sometimes she just wants to be herself and to tell people that actually, she's not okay and that there are things in her life that need fixing. This would make her upset, so she would have a tear running down her face. This would be the first time throughout the script that we see Sally in a real state of sadness.
