Kristen Bell News

You've seen her on Broadway. You've seen her light up the screen as Kristen Bell's costar in the largely unseen art film 'When In Rome.' You've seen her passed out in various gutters throughout New York City. Now, Natalie Joy Johnson conquers the filthiest gutter of them all - Joe's Pub. Under the micro-managing direction of has-beenthat-never-was, John Hill (her co-star in 'bare: a pop opera written in lowercase letters') Ms. Johnson is on a mission to corrupt you, touch you 'down there', melt your heart, and pretty much f**k you up.

Joe's Pub at The Public Theater debuted in October 1998 and has quickly became one of New York City's most celebrated and in-demand showcase venues for live music and performance. With its genre-blind booking and vast diversity of interests, the stage at Joe's Pub gives voice to a world of varied and stellar artists.

At long last. In less than a month, Broadway babies in the know will have the surefire showbiz salve of a brand spanking new movie-musical starring Cher and Christina Aguilera to sample - leaving us jubilant, giddy and breathless in its wake.
