\n\tAs Lily Allen<\/a> prepares for her West End<\/a> Girl tour, she could be headed for a different kind of stage with her latest album.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Grammy nominee recently confirmed that she\u2019s in talks to adapt her fifth studio album into a stage play, following West End Girl<\/a>\u2018s release in October, which was partially inspired by her pending divorce from actor David Harbour<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThat\u2019s true,\u201d she said on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/a> when the host brought up the project in the works.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen asked if she\u2019s involved with the production, Allen coyly teased, \u201cI might be. The ink is not dry \u2026 But, you know, I\u2019m definitely having some conversations with people about it. It\u2019s very exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s unclear whether Allen would also perform in the show, but not unlikely, given she made her West End debut in Danny Robins\u2019 2021 play 2:22 A Ghost Story, earning her a Laurence Olivier Award nomination for Best Actress. She will next appear in Virginia Woolf\u2019s Night & Day, a feature adaptation directed by Tina Gharavi.<\/p>\n
