Hi I'm new here so be my friend!
I just got the role of Kate in Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew and I am getting nervous about the stage kisses. I have never kissed anyone on or off the stage so this is very nerve rackingfor me. We are performing the wedding scene where he has to kiss me really obnoxiouly and then I need to kiss him twice at the end. I'm in eighth grade and the guy who got Petruchio is someone I have liked for many years. All of my friends are giving me a hard time that I get to kiss my crush but I don't know how I should do it. I don't want to look stupid on the stage not knowing what to do so I need some advice!

its easy!! if the guy is wearing a hat, make sure that he dips you low enough to where the hat can cover your face too...if your not that afraid, just kiss 'em and kiss 'em good

You're an actor. If the script says to kiss, you kiss. Half the fun of a stage kiss is just the basic idea that it's all for fun with no attatchments whatsoever.
