Sarah Ruhl's "Stage Kiss" will be at the Boston Center for the Arts from February 13th through February 23rd, 2025.
A dangerously sexy comedy, "Stage Kiss" by Sarah Ruhl brings us to the edge of love, passion, and the blurring of fantasy and reality. Described as a "love letter to actors," "Stage Kiss" lures us into the psychology of the "showmance" and elevates it tenfold.
Rani O'Brien's extensive credits include work with celebrated institutions such as The Second City, Kansas City Repertory Theatre, The Lark, Pacific Symphony, and McCarter Theatre Center. O'Brien, who holds an MFA in Directing from Boston University, brings a fresh vision to Ruhl's work, blending her skill in both comedy and drama to capture the nuanced layers of Stage Kiss.

This playful and thought-provoking romantic comedy tells the story of two actors with a past who are cast as romantic leads in a forgotten 1930s melodrama. As the line between onstage and offstage romance blurs, their lives spiral into a whirlwind of emotion, humor, and surreal moments.
The talented cast includes Wendy Lippe as "She" and Kenneth Kelleher as "He," Melissa Myers as Angela/Millicent/Maid, Julia Trueblood as Laurie/Millicent, Eric Cheung as Husband, David Kleinman as Kevin, and Zach Murphy as Director.
"Stage Kiss" will be performed February 13 - 23, 2025 at the Boston Center for the Arts, 539 Tremont St, Boston, MA 02116. For further details, please visit The Psych Drama Company website. For ticket information, visit bostontheatrescene.com.
