Costume and Props list

Costumes

• Carl (Steve):  Red Checked Shirt, Jeans. 
• We chose this costume because Steve is just going on a date with Ellie and we thought this was quite appropriate as it is not too casual, but smart. 
• Oli (Dylan): School Uniform
• We decided to put Dylan in his school uniform because this will exaggerate how young he is and how disturbed his young mind must be.  
• Ellie (Ellie): Trousers and a T-shirt
• We thought this outfit would work for Ellie because she is on a date with Steve, but they are at home so it doesn't need to be too 'dressy'.
• Michael (Michael): 'tatty' Jeans, Polo shirt. ]
• We chose these for Michael because he needs to contrast to Steve as he is the 'bad' person in the situation and Steve is 'good'.

Props

• Knife
• This is for the Kitchen scene and will be a usual kitchen knife.
• Photo
• This will be a photo of Ellie and Michael for Dylan to burn in his bedroom scene.
• Lighter
• This will need to be just a simple cigarette lighter that Dylan will have got hold of, maybe from the kitchen drawer.
• Can of Becks
• For Dylan when he is in his room burning the photo.
• Bottle of wine
• This is for Steve to get from the kitchen for Ellie and him to drink.
• Two glasses
• These will just be sat on the side in the kitchen for Steve to get for him and Ellie.
• Can of Stella
• This is for Michael to drink when he is beating Ellie. We chose Stella because it is known as 'wife-beater' and we thought it would be appropriate.
• Cigarettes
• These are for Dylan to smoke in the bedroom scene.
• Tennis Ball
• The tennis ball is what Dylan is throwing at his wall when it goes under the bed and he likes the photo.
