When estranged lovers He and She are thrown together as romantic leads in a long-forgotten 1930s melodrama, the line between off-stage and on-stage begins to blur. A \"knockabout farce that channels No\u0026#235;l Coward and Michael Frayn\" (\u003cI\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c/I\u003e), \u003cI\u003eStage Kiss\u003c/I\u003e is a thoughtful and clever examination of the difference between youthful lust and respectful love. Ruhl, one of America's most frequently produced playwrights, proves that a kiss is not just a kiss in this whirlwind romantic comedy, which will receive its New York premiere at Playwrights Horizons in winter 2014.\u003c/P\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cB\u003eSarah Ruhl\u003c/B\u003e's other plays include the Pulitzer Prize finalists \u003cI\u003eIn the Next Room (or the vibrator play)\u003c/I\u003e and \u003cI\u003eThe Clean House\u003c/I\u003e, as well as \u003cI\u003ePassion Play\u003c/I\u003e, \u003cI\u003eDead Man's Cell Phone\u003c/I\u003e, \u003cI\u003eDemeter in the City\u003c/I\u003e, \u003cI\u003eEurydice\u003c/I\u003e, \u003cI\u003eMelancholy Play\u003c/I\u003e, and \u003cI\u003eLate: a cowboy song\u003c/I\u003e.
