When you are writing a script, you sometimes use these symbols to point out stage direction [ ], does this include something like this?

Catherine: [Sternly]
I will not marry a pig.

PLEASE HELP.

That'll do 'er. Just make sure your dialogue is centered. eg.

Catherine [sternly]

I will not marry a pig.

Stage or screen directions are given a left-hand alignment. But I think you already know that.

No, only stage directions go into brackets [ ]. To put in an actors or actresses moods you would place in Italics. This way they know how to act without actually saying anything.

YEP! Those symbols are used to tell the character what to do or how they should say a line

yes, and often times they also put adjectives like that in italics as well, as to differ them from directions!!! :)
