What tools do you<br />recommend for newer playwrights? How often do you write and do you write different genres or are you<br />focused? I wrote a One-Act play, yet I want to write Full-Length plays in the future as well.

First off, thank you for reading this post!
Se...Hi!<br />First off, thank you for reading this post!<br />Secondly, I want to say you did the right thing by making it known that you were not comfortable with a stage kiss right upfront. By doing this, the director can't say you didn't let them know. <br />I know it's not always easy, especially in school theatre, but it's really important to make sure you speak up for your own personal comfort. It can be nerve-wracking, but I highly suggest talking with your director as soon as possible about your concerns. Remind him or her that you expressed your discomfort with stage kissing before being cast, and then ask questions about their plans for these scenes. Let your director know what you are comfortable with (maybe hugs, hand holding, perhaps a kiss on the cheek--- again, what YOU are comfortable with). <br />I know it is a plot point that Kim is supposed to kiss Conrad, and then Hugo punches him --- I can't remember if the kiss happens before Hugo interrupts, but, even if it isn't written that way, it could be blocked that way. There are, of course, ways to block stage kisses so you give the appearance of kissing without really touching lips.<br />Communication is key. You were given the part after being upfront, so it shouldn't be taken away from you. Just be open and respectful with your director, and remember that your comfort is important!<br />I hope this helps and that it all works out! It's a fun show and Kim is a great part!<br />Break a leg!<br />P.S. It's possible the actor playing Hugo has similar concerns about awkwardness. If you feel comfortable talking with him about it, that might be helpful, too.Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09390663025726154735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056731334636399310.post-67130034753260366012019-12-15T18:33:32.731-08:002019-12-15T18:33:32.731-08:00Hi.

And even though I listed that I was not comfortable doing a stage kiss, I was cast as Kim MacAfee, who kisses Hugo multiple times (From the productions I have seen on YouTube). To make matters worse, Hugo is being played by my brother's friend, who is a senior. I am incredibly nervous and anxious. What do I do? How can I handle this?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201418093094562099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056731334636399310.post-69652610155766293072018-12-21T20:10:12.258-08:002018-12-21T20:10:12.258-08:00Thanks!Thanks!Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09390663025726154735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056731334636399310.post-33227792046355937572018-12-21T19:53:54.065-08:002018-12-21T19:53:54.065-08:00I have been lead roles in "I dont mind that y...I have been lead roles in "I dont mind that youre ugly" and "Confessions" Loved them both.

I initially wasn't meant to be playing this part, so it kind of just snuck up on me that this was a thing that was going to be happening. Eeek! Your advice and my wonderful directors are making this far easier. Thanks for your words of advice and your wonderful playwriting talent.
