Yes, there is kissing in William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream." In Act 3, Scene 2, there is a scene where the fairy queen Titania is under a spell and falls in love with an ass-headed man named Bottom. In this scene, Titania kisses Bottom. Additionally, there are other instances of kissing between various characters throughout the play, as physical affection and romantic entanglements are central themes in the play.

Can you suggest anything for my Shakespeare performance - eg. any character tips on Helena from A Midsummer Night's Dream?

Helena - keep a disorientated voice. And if you are stumbling around at some point make sure your whole body moves to it's own accord. I went to see a midsummer nights dream and it was very good. Helena had a deep stumbling voice. Demitrus - when you are not in love with helena keep a snotty exterior around her. I love acting! From Bea age 11

Dream about kissing someone you like?

To dream of kissing means an omen of good luck. Your friends will be unusually kind and your business will prosper... To dream that you are kissing a close friend means your respect and adoration for your friend. You are seeking some intimate closeness that is lacking in some waking relationship. ...To dream that you are kissing someone on the cheek means admiration, courtesy, reverence, friendship or respect. This dream reflects the dreamer's own emotions, and perhaps the dreamer's hope for a relationship with that special person. However, the dream does not predict any definite future relationship or reveal anything about that someone's thoughts or feelings. It only expresses the dreamer's affection for that someone.
