"Tarantino In Concert" was originally staged a year and a half ago in Los Angeles as the first show in the "For The Record" series which celebrates songs and moments from the body of work by a featured director.  A talented troop of performers that includes a rotating ensemble of Film, Television, Record and Broadway talent come together to present this unique fusion of music, theatre and film that brings motion pictures to life in a concert setting. Other shows in the series have included "For The Record: Coen Brothers," "For The Record: Baz Luhrmann," "For The Record: John Hughes" and stagings have been mounted in Los Angeles, Palm Springs and New York. 

Unquestionably a master of modern American film, Tarantino has also mastered the art of the movie soundtrack with song choices that have helped define his signature style. This 25th anniversary retrospective highlights hit Tarantino directed films including Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Four Rooms, Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2, Death Proof, and Inglourious Basterds.
