Winter Theatrical Production of And Never Been Kissed

The Milford High School Theatre Company (MTC) is proud to present And Never Been
Kissed as its winter theatrical production. This play, written by Aurand Harris, is a teenage
comedy about love and life in the late 1920s. Flory Patterson is almost sixteen and never been
kissed but not for lack of trying as she devotes every moment to attracting the opposite sex.
Involved in the hilarious proceedings are Flory's best friend, her understanding mother, her matter of fact little sister and the sister's equally matter of fact friend, and, of course, the boys: disdainful Charlie, unattainable Douglas, eager Gilmore, and, finally, the divine Phillip. With its fast pace, clever dialogue and unusual situations, you are sure to enjoy this timeless comedy. The laughter and story will warm your heart during these cold winter days.

The cast is made up of twelve 9th through 12th graders who auditioned and began
working with the script in December. Rehearsals run for 2-3 hours 3-4 days a week. In addition
to the cast, there are several student crew members who are working hard to paint, costume,
and organize the show. MHS English/Theatre teacher and MTC Director, Megan Weeks,
choose this play for a variety of reasons: “I wanted a smart comedy that was challenging for the
cast. Comedy is very difficult to do well and I knew our actors were ready for the task. I also
wanted to find a show that was universal and real. This play fit all of those needs and it has
been a blast to rehearse. We are laughing at every run-through and I know the audience will
really connect with this one.”
