Tarantino Sets His Sights on the West End Stage
Quentin Tarantino will write and direct a new swashbuckling play, The Popinjay Cavalier, set in 1830s Europe. The production is from Sonia Friedman Productions and is slated to premiere in London's West End in early 2027, described as a rambunctious comedy of deception and disguise inspired by classic stage and screen epics. Tarantino has said he moved to theater to create an experience without interruptions like cell phones, offering a face-to-face, immersive audience experience.
