Better than all the rest

From Nutbush to the world! Everyone loves a biographical musical, and this one is better than all the rest! Tina! is a phenomenal extravaganza based on the life of iconic songstress Tina Turner. Directed by Mamma Mia!'s Phyllida Lloyd, with a book by Katori Hall, the Olivier and Tony Award-winning spectacular is the perfect night out for fans of The Queen and Rock and Roll. Get ready for an electrifying journey through Tina's life, with dazzling choreography, blazing soul, and a whole lotta love!

What's the story?

Tina Turner's turbulent career is the stuff of music legend, with her iconic songs often masking the dramatic goings-on behind the scenes. Her inspiring story was first told in the 1993 made-for-TV movie What's Love Got to Do with It, which followed her rise to fame, and her struggle to break free from her abusive husband and manager Ike Turner. Following an incredible comeback in the early '80s, Tina is now considered to be one of the best-selling artists of all time - and the reigning Queen of Rock 'n' Roll. She has garnered 11 Grammy Awards and three Grammy Hall of Fame awards, plus a legion of fans the world over.

What we thought

a Rolling SUCCESS!

The high never really stops as Adrienne Warren delivers simply the best performance as the Queen of Rock and Roll.

Fans of all ages were whooping from the first bars of the first song (Nutbush City Limits - what else?) And the high never really stops as Adrienne Warren delivers simply the best performance as the Queen of Rock and Roll.
