On Monday, Aug 31, 2009, Natalie Joy Johnson, currently starring as Paulette in Legally Blond at the Pantages Theatre, made her West Coast premiere at Upright Cabaret on Vermont to a sold-out audience of adoring fans.

ArtsWest starts the 2009-10 season with Dead Man's Cell Phone, a wildly imaginative new work from Sarah Ruhl, the playwright behind The Clean House and Eurydice. When Jean answers the cell phone of the corpse at the next table, she unwittingly embarks on a quirky odyssey that takes her from grief to the black market to the afterlife. With unfailing empathy, she sets the dead man's bizarre life to rights and on the way resurrects her own. ArtsWest favorite Carol Roscoe returns to direct this Seattle premiere.

The Phoenix Theatre of Indianapolis will produce the Midwest premiere of Nicholas Wardigo's The Dos and Don'ts of Time Travel in the Frank & Katrina Basile Theatre at the Phoenix July 16 through August 15, 2009.

For 2009-2010 ArtsWest has created a stimulating, conversation-inducing six-play season featuring 4 Seattle Premieres - including another World Premiere through their partnership with the National New Play Network - and the return of the smash holiday hit Plaid Tidings.

On the heels of a sold-out premiere at Joe's Pub, Molly Pope brings The Diva-lution of Molly Pop, directed and produced by Ben Rimalower (Leslie Kritzer is Patti LuPone at Les Mouches) and featuring a band led by Sonny Paladino (White Noise), to the Laurie Beechman Theatre, downstairs at the West Bank Café (42nd Street, just West of 9th Ave) for three performances, Wednesday, November 19th, Monday, December 8th and Monday, December 15th, all at 9:30 PM.
