Tina
The Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll is coming to the West End! Tina Turner is producing a musical, aptly named TINA, about her life – the multi-Grammy Award-winning singer, whose career spans seven decades, will open the show at the Aldwych Theatre in March 2018. This promises to be a real highlight in the 2018 calendar, so book those tickets now!
Turner’s extensive songbook includes such classics as ‘River Deep, Mountain High’, ‘Simply The Best’ and ‘Proud Mary’, which across her career won her 11 Grammy awards, sold over 180 million records and inducted her into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with more concert tickets sold than any other solo performer in history.
TINA will tell of the singer’s life, from growing up in Nutbush, Tennessee, through her turbulent partnership with Ike Turner, to defying the bounds of age, gender and race as a successful recording artist with multi-platinum albums and a James Bond theme song to her name. The production will be directed by Phyllida Lloyd, whose last West End production was the still-running global success, Mamma Mia!. Lloyd brings back a number of her collaborators, including choreographer Anthony van Laast, designer Mark Thompson and musical supervisor Nicholas Skilbeck, to lend their magical touch to TINA.
Tickets for TINA are currently on sale from 21 March – 16 June 2018. Book now and enjoy a rock ‘n’ roll highlight of 2018.

Amazing experience Would definitely recommend!
charlotte, 17 Feb 2025
Sensational show, uncomfortable seat The musical was absolutely phenomenal, we loved every single aspect from the show. Just a word of friendly advice, do not pick seats in row G of the Grand Circle, they’re extremely narrow and the seats won’t fold so you need to move out constantly to let people get in and out

Gary, 04 Feb 2025
Amazing, heartbreaking, fantastic Doors opened 18.40 waited until after 19.30 to be seated waited ages for an apology for late start. Show started after 8pm 10mins in stopped technical issue but once fixed the show didn't disappoint. Seats are very snug but they are over 100yrs and public were smaller then lol. Wonderful story fantastic acting (beware of foul language) beautiful singing and basically jawdropping. Highly recommend.

Robina, 28 Jan 2025
If you have not seen it, you have so missed out!! This is ,by far, the greatest musical in London.
It has everything that a show should have, do not miss this.!
REG, 27 Jan 2025
Disappointing Tina! I hade been told by numerous friends to “Go and see Tina”
Finally, I did and I will not be passing on the ‘Must see’ category to anyone.
The cast worked hard, and the story ambled along, but ‘Tina’ shouted, rather than sang.
The whole show lacked ‘sparkle’ and the half empty stalls said it all.
Not a great show.
Kevin, 26 Jan 2025
Amazing Show A great show with amazing singing and acting.

Ruth, 04 Jan 2025
dont miss this, its brilliant on every level, the youngest on stage are future stars. brilliant show,but with realism, do not, do not go to any other show until you've been to see Tina and I do mean Tina!
Words cannot do it justice. How those actors produce such feats day after day is incredible.
Andy, 02 Jan 2025
Spellbinding, emotional, funny & amazing! I’m not a big fan of musicals. But I loved Tina, so I couldn’t imagine not enjoying it! And I was not disappointed. Amazing production. The musicians are outstanding. All of the actors are brilliant. But the ladies playing the part of Tina are absolute stars. It was upbeat, energetic, funny, heartbreaking, and heart warming. I loved every second of it.

Helen, 30 Dec 2024
Excellent It is an emotional musical and the actors let you trail with them throughout
One gets so much into it that at the end it is a bit disappointing that you do not get to mingle in dance and singing as promised in the announcement. But surely this does not take anything away from the show. Thank you for the lovely experience

Angela, 23 Nov 2024
fantastic ! Really fantastic even if I would have appreciate a little more original songs from Tina, but really a great moment
Marie, 22 Nov 2024
Superb entertainment with great music and a strong story line. A revelation of such a hard life that moulded Tina’s character that was so strongly portrayed in the show. A truly fantastic performance by the lead singer,as adult Tina,supported by an absolutely charming young Tina and a very good cast.
Keep your emotions under control as you watch extreme adversity leading through gritty endeavour and hard work to eventual success and adulation.
Robert, 21 Nov 2024
Incredible Absolutely so worth going to.
We had an amazing time.
The actors were fantastic.
Kerri, 20 Nov 2024
Tina triumphs Great story-telling, poignant, tough moments captured delicately and elegantly without pulling punches. Enchanting youngsters and a knockout Tina who triumphs over adversity. A must-see show and I can’t wait to bring the family next time. Brava!

Carol, 17 Oct 2024
Fantastic show, would go and see it again! The whole show was brilliant and exciting from start to finish, one of the best I’ve seen if not the best!
Jason, 16 Oct 2024
Excellent music and story The acting was excellent, especially young Annie Mae. The vocal range from both young Tina and Tina were so impressive. The story itself has some audience gasping moments (especially the use of the N word), so if easily offended it's probably best avoided. However, you can't rewrite history and growing up around the South of the US,it will have happened and adds to the the life of Tina.
The choice of songs were great and it's difficult to sit still when you desperately want to sing along. I learnt some new things about her past and all in all, enjoyed very much.
