NEW YORK — Parker Posey, everyone's favorite indie-film actress, is going off-Broadway next season.

Playwrights Horizons says Posey will be featured in "This," described as "an unromantic comedy" about the ups and downs of a woman turning 40. The play by Melissa James Gibson will be directed by Daniel Aukin. Dates of the engagement will be announced.

"This" is one of four world-premiere plays announced Tuesday for its 2009-2010 season by Playwrights Horizons. The other three are "Clybourne Park" by Bruce Norris, "The Retributionists" by Daniel Goldfarb and "Circle Mirror Transformation" by Annie Baker.

This is exciting. She is my favorite actress and I would love to be able to see her perform on stage.
