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.

A house cat with a longing to visit the park across the street "escapes" her comfortable apartment, meets a streetwise cat, and is given a tour that results in a hair-raising encounter that sends her rushing home to stay--at least until tomorrow.

The author wrote this booklet hoping that genealogy, one of the legacies left behind by ancestors, could be used in the modern era. In other words, it can be said to be a ‘modern genealogy’, and this book is called your ‘Keepsake Memory Record Book’. This booklet explains genealogy from a genetic perspective, considering both the maternal and paternal lines, rather than a traditional genealogy made up of paternal ancestors. Family information appropriate for the modern era was applied. The author hopes that reading this booklet will become a good guideline to increase family intimacy and protect the family's health.
