{"product_id":"the-third-story-charles-busch-9780573697302","title":"The Third Story","description":"Comedy \/ Characters: 4m, 2f \/ Unit set A faded screenwriter in the 1940's woos her troubled ex-writer son into collaborating on a screen play. The gangster\/sci fi B-movie in their imagination unfolds before us, involving a chic crime czarina, a beautiful but icy lady scientist and her failed and understandly bitter human cloning experiment. A third story is the Russian fairy tale the screenwriter told her son as a child about a painfully shy princess who forges a diabolical pact with a terrifying but surprisingly vulnerable old witch. The fairy tale inspires the movie which inspires the mother and son screenwriters to mend their fractured relationship. \"Plays-within-plays require such intricate tailoring. So it's a pleasure to report that with The Third Story, the ever-captivating Charles Busch proves equally deft as both performer and seamstress.\" -Theatermania. \"The main joy of The Third Story is that its foolery embodies something substantive...No wonder The Third Story feels like such an energizing event.\" -Village Voice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Busch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0573697302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780573697302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Concord Theatricals\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Charles Busch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46216942977279,"sku":"9780573697302","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f3dfb2a0-9c61-40aa-a7a6-55f0d1f9fb6a.jpg?v=1728513824","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-third-story-charles-busch-9780573697302","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
