Laura, 13 Jun 2024
Spectacular show My second time attending Tina . Absolutely fabulous singing and dancing. The only criticism I would like to make is we felt the show could have omitted or shortened some scenes. We felt it lasted just too long. However the overall experience was amazing. When I closed my eyes I honestly thought it was the real Tina singing and speaking. Loved! Loved! The show Highly recommend!!💃🕺

A Spectacular Tribute to Tina Turner: Electrifying Performances and Unforgettable Energy Attending "Tina - The Tina Turner Musical" at the Aldwych Theatre was an unforgettable experience that felt almost like witnessing the real Tina Turner herself. From the moment the curtain rose, it was clear that the production was something special. The story of Tina Turner’s life was executed brilliantly, weaving together her rise to stardom, personal struggles, and ultimate triumph with seamless grace.
The creative set design transported the audience through various stages of Tina's life, each scene meticulously crafted to reflect the time and place. Complementing the set were the costumes, which were perfectly selected to capture the essence of each era, enhancing the authenticity of the storytelling.
The cast was meticulously chosen, displaying both exceptional vocal talent and acting prowess. Each member brought their character to life in a way that felt both authentic and deeply moving. Special commendation must be given to the actor portraying Ike Turner, who delivered a performance that was both chilling and nuanced, a true credit to his interpretation of the complex figure.
However, the true star of the show was, naturally, Tina. The actress capturing her essence was remarkable, embodying Tina Turner’s legendary voice, electrifying moves, and iconic presence. Her portrayal was so convincing that I felt as though I was seeing Tina Turner in concert, a regret of mine that this performance helped to fulfill.
The finale of the show was a powerhouse of energy and emotion, a testament to the talented musicians and band that brought Tina's iconic songs to life with vibrant intensity. Their performance left the audience invigorated and deeply moved, showcasing the full breadth of Tina Turner's musical legacy.
Adding to the excellence of the evening was the wonderful staff at the Aldwych Theatre. From the accommodating Dorajean to the entire team, everyone contributed to a welcoming and vibrant atmosphere that enhanced the overall experience.
In conclusion, "Tina - The Tina Turner Musical" is a must-see production. With its stellar cast, exceptional storytelling, creative set, era-appropriate costumes, and electrifying finale, it stands as a powerful tribute to Tina Turner’s legacy. I would watch it again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a night of superb entertainment.
Gem, 07 Jun 2024
Good show It was a good show and told the story well. I would have liked more of her songs in the show. The final 20 minutes was more what we had hoped for with lots of songs and music.
Dorothy, 06 Jun 2024
What a voice! Holy smokes. The lead singer is beyond incredible. We were blown away! A must see.

Wow! Simply the best night!
Sharon, 31 May 2024
Exuberant performances tingling atmosphere. From the word go I was captivated by the gritty true life story of the great Tina Turner.
I was shocked by the raw sense of injustice against ethnic minorities and the horrendous domestic violence.
Bringing this out into the open can only help in enlightening society.
As for the music and singing amazing loved every minute of it.
A truly sublime performance by the lead and cast, fabulous band.
The lighting effects were superb leading up to a magnificent finale unmissable.
Well worth the 200 mile trip.
Carl, 30 May 2024
Brilliant! Great acting, great songs, very impactful!
Renu, 30 May 2024
Inspiring and uplifting Tina covers the whole life story of Tina Turner from her childhood the abusive marriage to Ike and her eventual triumph to superstardom. It’s not subtle but very enjoyable and lively. The person playing Tina has to be exceptional and boy she was. A well deserved standing ovation at the end.
ROGER, 29 May 2024
Brilliant exciting professional stunning The star singer is totally brilliant. Gives her absolute all.

Santhi, 22 May 2024
Wonderful life story of Tina Turner. A wonderful tribute to Tina Turner. Thoroughly enjoyed the show. Easy to follow life story, amazing vocals.
Debra, 22 May 2024
A bit shouty The lead was more shouty than I think was necessary. The relaunch of Tina in the 1980s was incomplete - it missed the important part between not being signed and suddenly being US No1.
Richard, 21 May 2024
You can see her again even better! How did they reincarnate Tina!!! Unbelievable! And I saw many times the last Hollywood Bowl. I was looking at Ms Tuner again!!
Michael, 18 May 2024
Great music The lead actor/singer was so good I thought I was watching Tina
Judithe, 17 May 2024
Fantastic, outstanding, amazing show and great voices 💃 The play was unbelievable, and very very good. The lead actor had an outstanding voice and imitated Tina at perfection👏💃 we loved everything about it - the concert at the end was the highlight of the evening, and left us wanting more. Well done 🥳 the only bad thing was the people showing up late at the show, disturbing everyone else walking in in the middle of the show. Be there at the right time or don’t come at all!!!!
Lærke, 15 May 2024

Kerry, 09 May 2024
Tina ,” simply the best “ The show was first class the story was well delivered. Parts were played very well and the music was top class, all the singers played a great part but Tina was outstanding. If you know any of her songs you must see this show.

Lars, 27 Apr 2024
Uplifting Very cold in the theatre seats very cramped but still enjoyed the show
Julie, 25 Apr 2024
Great show don’t miss it Great show but perhaps some of the period racial references would not be suitable for todays ‘PC’ audience.
Rodney, 25 Apr 2024
Amazing Omg the best theatre musical I’ve seen in a long time
Nicola, 25 Apr 2024
Great night out What a fantastic show,it was electric from beginning to end.Great storyline,great acting,great singing,what a wonderful way to spend a night..
Robert, 24 Apr 2024
Honestly the best show I’ve ever seen and I’m not really a fan of musicals. I was able to follow the storyline and the music was fantastic. Would highly recommend to anyone and guarantee you’ll come out buzzing. Had a great storyline and fantastic music from start to finish
Darren, 23 Apr 2024
Outstanding I originally booked to see this show in NY in 2021 but sadly the cast all had covid so it was cancelled..so glad I finally got to see it. It was incredible! The music obviously is fabulous. The story of Anna-Mae's humble beginnings to superstar Tina Turner is one of humour, sadness, determination and plain talent. The cast were wonderful and 'Tina'played by Karis Anderson on our evening..well what can I say? She WAS Tina! And dare I say it, she is 'simply the best'.. what an incredible talent she is. 10/10. We loved the show, the story and the music. We were not ready for it to end. A must see and not just for Tina Turner fans. We could watch this again and again.
Helen, 22 Apr 2024
Great show It was a really great show.
Lorraine, 19 Apr 2024
Beyond excellent I have never seen a show that is as emotional , warming or pulsating in my life ; beyond excellent !
trevor, 19 Apr 2024
A great performance to see I have seen a different version of this before and your both very good in different ways,
There’s so much of her life to tell I guess ,
I didn’t dislike anything, but I thought the other performance I saw 6 years ago, told more of her story in a different context .
I enjoyed your performance to …. Thanks to you all ….
Great singing/acting and performing 🎭
I know you all work hard to make it happen 🫶
Natasha, 18 Apr 2024
Simply the Best Karis is Tina such a fantastic lead supported by great cast. This tell the story , the highs and lows with spectacular finale
David, 18 Apr 2024
Fantastic This is one of the best musical stories I've seen. Music was fantastic, lead actress was brilliant
Alison, 17 Apr 2024
Definitly must see Actors were excellent, music also. I enjoyed every minute of the show.
andreja, 17 Apr 2024
I missed the show due to illness, tried to get a erfund via email, but I got no response. I couldn't attend the show. I got covid 2 days before. I emailed to ask if I could have a refund, but I didn't get a response. i'm really sad to have missed this show - it was an early birthday present for me (nearly 57) and I've loved Tina forever. I'm so sad :-( I bet the show wa amazing.
JEAN, 15 Apr 2024
Wonderful, well worth the visit Excellent story of Tina’s life.
The finale had everyone on their feet.
The audience left on a high, would recommend it to all
Thomas, 13 Apr 2024
Out of this world Excellent singing and acting wonderful show
Kim, 13 Apr 2024
Incredible - Simply the Best! Booked as an extra thing to do for a busy trip to London - ended up being the highlight of my trip and haven’t stopped raving about it to anyone who will listen. The cast and musicians were incredible but Karis Anderson as Tina was undoubtedly the best performer in any show I’ve seen. Would come back in a heartbeat!
Holly, 12 Apr 2024
Powerful Story of a Powerful Woman Gives a moving précis of her troubled life: effectively told, with humour and direct but brief reference to her personal relationship difficulties. Think for mature teenagers upwards. Stage effects really great, loud bright and colourful. Would recommend, to fans and curious as not too late to appreciate her talents.
Anthony, 12 Apr 2024
Fantastic Karis Anderson was 'simply the best'. The show was absolutely amazing from the actors, the musicians, to the costumes.
The theatre staff were super and were quick to approach the disrespectful people who were constantly on their mobile phones during the performance.
Maria, 12 Apr 2024
Entertaining evening captivating storyline great musical Staff very friendly and customer service oriented. Paid attention to details.
Story, acting, dancing and singing were top notch.
Louis, 03 Apr 2024
Outstanding Outstanding music loved it !!
Simon, 03 Apr 2024
Must see Interesting
Sherene, 03 Apr 2024
Simply The Best!! I had seen the performance a year or so ago with my partner. My daughter treated me to see it again with her and it was just as good as before - I would STRONGLY recommend everyone and anyone to go along - the emotive performances of all the actors (specifically Tina) were a joy to witness.
Tessa, 02 Apr 2024
Powerful and exceptional I loved the show ! The singer actress is unbelievable and she has an incredible and powerful voice. She really reminds me of Tina.
The general acting was excellent, the story of Tina is well adapted and the show helps understand what her life was for those who didn’t know.
I’m French and next time I come to London I want to see the show again. What a great experience in a beautiful theatre !
Evelyne, 31 Mar 2024
Must see A fantastic show from start to finish. Brilliantly acted and sung. Beautifully choreographed,colourful & vibrant. A wonderful cast. Loved it!
Mamode R, 31 Mar 2024
Amazing Absolutely outstanding storytelling was fantastic music brilliant, actors amazing
Julie, 31 Mar 2024
Amazing The performances were all fantastic, the music and all the singers were brilliant. The only thing l didn’t like was the occasional bad language, but unfortunately this is a sign of the times we now live in.
Other than the language l would thoroughly recommend this totaly amazing production.
