First Draft- Stage Directions for the character of ‘Peter’:

The middle of the afternoon, Winter of 1953. Cold and bright by ‘Aldwich Central’
Station.

Lights come on. ‘Centre Stage’ is a black chair (clear glass bottles of powders and a
wine glass) on the block, positioned straight full is small and medium bottles. 

Wearing black. Long, plain black jacket with waistcoat and cuffs, black smart
trousers and plain black shirt. Also, has black pointy shoes. 

Very pale face. Dirty soot on his cheeks. Has frizzy, dark brown hair.

Tall and straight stance, looking around at the crowd of people. 

Quick (But swiftly) walk. 

Come on ‘Stage Right,’ Peter walks in with suitcase and walks around suspiciously
(But slowly) 

Chair is seen clearly by bright light ‘Centre Stage’, walk over to front. Rest of Stage
is empty. 

(1st 30 seconds)

Take a pause, remains thoughtful for a moment and peers down at the table full of
glass bottles that have lots of types of white powders. 
Look at the dirty, old man is and elbow him out of respect. For what he is selling.
Count the bottles from right to left, examining them one by one and picking a
random bottle while still admiring what it is.
Sway slightly, while thinking of a decision to take the bottles by hand.
Give the seller with my right hand a £5 note who is wanting money.
Man says ‘Go and grab em, thanks mate’ in a screechy voice. All at once
immediately take all the glass bottles and hunch them in my suitcase. Get down on
floor and put bottles inside quickly.He is happy; this makes me feel excited as I want
to look cool against everyone in the station. (packed station many people are walking
briskly and quickly)
