The scene I have chosen to focus on to create my contemporary character is Act One, Scene Seven. This is the scene where Fraulein Schneider catches Kost with a German Sailor and they exchange words in which Kost threatens to leave, leaving Schneider out of pocket. I have decided to focus on this scene because it shows just how manipulative Kost is in order to get her own way.
From the stage directions in the script we know that they are in Schneiders living room, which is furnished with dull heavy furniture, with a sofa, end table and gramophone. This sets the scene as a dark, dull place with neutral tones.
The moodboard above shows what I think the scene would look like. The furniture is dark and bulky. The painting is also a dark colour, coming off the wall as Schneider would not be able to afford to keep the house in tact.
