The Psych Drama Company

Stage Kiss

BCA Plaza Black Box Theatre, 539 Tremont Street

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.

The story follows two former lovers who, decades after their relationship ended, find themselves reunited when cast in a 1930s melodrama. This unexpected encounter becomes a journey of rediscovery and introspection, offering both humor and insights into the complexities of love and human connection. A viscerally intimate portrayal of love and betrayal in The Psych Drama Company’s critically acclaimed immersive performance style. And post-show discussions with the full cast after every performance!
“Love is the extremely difficult realization that something other than oneself is real” (Iris Murdoch). In an age of confusion and uncertainty about what’s real, the ever-pressing challenge of authenticity comes to the forefront in Stage Kiss’ exploration of fate versus free will in love, passion, and romance.
