okay, im 15 and i've never been kissed, im freaking as ive just been given the lead role in a musical at school and there are kissing scenes. I have no idea how to kiss or what to do and its gonna be really awkward and agh :|
Uh, when you rehearse, you'll have to kiss so just learn it as you rehearse.
I'm sure you'll do fine though - I never saw why people over react about kissing.

I know this sounds harsh but - deal with it. I'm 15, never been kissed, and I do musicals all the time. It's just something you have to put up with really, it's awkward the first time round, but after that it's fine. Get closer to the other person and it will be less awkward. The more you worry about it, the worse it will feel for you.

The best thing you can do is practice with the person you have to kiss. Remember that it's your character doing the kissing, not you.
And don't use your tongue.

Totally agree with Rogan, Don't french it up, keep it all to the lips, and ask the person to practise with you, even if it seems awkward..
good luck and dont sweat it..
I suppose it's solved by now (how did it go?). But anyhow:
I don't think having kissed for real helps much to get a staged kiss right. Some people's real kisses don't look all that good, and there's no point in french kissing for real on stage.
And since it's on a stage (as opposed to a movie) it doesn't matter so much what happens between the lips, because nobody can even tell if the lips touch from a distance of 3 meters and up. What makes the kiss dramatic is the facial expression, how you put your hands etc. Again, your lack of experience is irrelevant.
