Turner in The Third Story
MCC Theater’s current run of playwright and star Charles Busch’s The Third Story has extended its limited run by two weeks. The limited engagement, directed by Carl Andress and co-starring Kathleen Turner, opened on February 2 with closing set for February 28. The New York premiere will now continue its off-Broadway run through March 15.
In The Third Story, a mother and son screenwriting team hunker down in Omaha after fleeing Commie-obsessed 1940s Hollywood. A romantically inclined but socially inept princess makes a deal with an ancient witch. And tommy guns meet test tubes as a way-too-well-dressed first lady of the mob forms a desperate alliance with a cloning scientist whose experiments have had less-than-consistent results. Gangster flicks, fairy tales and B-movie sci-fi collide in Busch's latest comic fable.
In addition to Turner and Busch, the show also features Jennifer Van Dyck, Scott Parkinson, Sarah Rafferty and Jonathan Walker.
