- 2The characters in Stolen have a sentence at the start which sums up their story ("I'm finally gonna meet my mother" for Jimmy).The characters in Fearless have a shorter verbal gestus which they say throughout ("Ha!" for Carlotta). It is also a sentence which sums up their story.
- 3The disadvantaged, and especially the parentless, are sexually abused- Ruby and later Jimmy were abusedLikewise, Mut-dog is implied to have been sexually abused, but it shows no effect on him. "No men with their grabby paws all over me, sniff, sniff, sniffing."
- 4Both plays break the fourth wall to address and confront the audience: Lotte's song at the beginning......as well as Anne's monologue.
- 5The actors break out of character and mock a character: The actors swarming and bossing around Ruby in Stolen are an example.Similarly, the people throw money at Gizmo.
