Stage Kiss
December 8 - January 6
NEW MILFORD, CONN. – On December 8, TheatreWorks New Milford will open their production of Stage Kiss, a comedy by Sarah Ruhl.
Stage Kiss is a highly theatrical, not-so-romantic comedy about two actors with a history who are thrown together as romantic leads in a forgotten 1930s melodrama. They quickly lose touch with reality as the story onstage follows them offstage. This is a charming tale about what happens when lovers share a stage kiss—or when actors share a real one.
