Character Blog: Stella

Stella is Paul's second love interest in our production "All You Need Is Love." Although Paul leaves Lucy for Stella and treats Lucy bad due to his new found fondness for her, Stella is still not to be presented in a negative way, as she need to be presented as not knowing about Paul and Lucy's relationship before. This may make her appear as quite naive but it's essential to the plot. Stella is a huge fan of 'The Beatles' and knows a lot of trivia about the band and often recites it or makes reference to the band and their songs throughout the scenes. Stella's quite an upbeat character and is annoyed when others are seen as miserable, shown when Paul is upset about Lucy and Stella tells him to stop being so miserable. This also shows that she's more interested in talking about The Beatles with Paul over thinking about Paul's feelings. This is similar to Paul who doesn't care much about others feelings. Stella is slightly younger than Lucy but only by one or two months, so she's younger than Paul also. Stella is quite a nice person, she's seen making the first effort to talk to Paul and it needs to be established that she's the one who arranges them two meeting up and cares more for the relationship than Paul.
