Something for all of the young actresses out there.

The first time you perform a stage kiss can be daunting, male or female. In the end, it's all part of the show. Give it your best, and don't forget the breath mints!
I was in a two hander a couple of years back, and we must have been convincing, as we had people asking after the show if we were a couple. :)
As Katya says, it's a challenge. Like a fight scene, or a sob scene. It takes practice to get it right, and to look convincing.
