Stop Kiss is a play written by the American playwright Diana Son, and produced Off-Broadway in 1998 at The Public Theater in New York City.
Freeman won the rights to stage the play's second production, the U.S. West Coast Premiere, at the Jurkowitz Theater in Santa Barbara, California in 1999.
Produced by the Santa Barbara City College Department of Theater Arts, which hires Equity guest artists, it was directed by Freeman, stage managed and sound designed by Edward Lee, with scenic and lighting design by Patricia L. Frank, and costumes by Janet Freeman.
Sara and Callie are walking through New York City's West Village very late at night, when they share their first kisses.
The story is told out of chronological order: alternating scenes take place respectively before and after the assault, which is not shown onstage.
