Tarantula

It’s a sunny, spring day in East London. On a street corner, two teenagers kiss. One of them is Toni (Georgie Henley). This is her first kiss. It makes her very happy. But someone is watching. Someone who doesn’t care about her happiness at all. And they’re about to change Toni’s life… forever. Philip Ridley’s thrilling new play is a startling exploration of identity, memory, love, and the lengths it takes someone to free themselves from the web of their past

Directed by Wiebke Green, Tarantula leans on a strong ensemble — Georgie Henley — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2021.
