With raw emotion in her voice and fire in her belly, Tina went from the little girl in small-town Tennessee to the legend that ignited the globe with hits like, "What's Love Got To Do With It," "Proud Mary," "Private Dancer" and "River Deep." She made her own rules—defying the world's notions of race, age and gender. And it took blood, sweat, tears and triumphs to reach the top. This is Tina's story, her way.

News & Features

About tina: the tina turner musical on broadway, video & photos.

Tina follows Tina Turner from her humble beginnings in Nutbush, Tennessee, to her transformation into the global queen of rock 'n' roll. Born Anna Mae Bullock in 1939, Turner rose to fame in the 1960s alongside her husband Ike. She later revealed in her autobiography that she had suffered domestic abuse at his hands—they separated in 1976 and divorced two years later. Turner later made a massive comeback in the 1980s. The Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll has sold 180 million records worldwide and been honored with 11 Grammy Awards.

"I’ve rarely heard an audience with this mighty a roar." The New York Times Jesse Green

"Roof-raising. This is Tina as we know and adore her." Variety Marilyn Stasio

Review: TINA – THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL at National Theatre

National Tour Running through October 23rd

The national tour of TINA - The Tina Turner Musical arrived at The National Theatre on October 4th, and you have until October 23rd to see this electrifying musical about one of the most iconic performers in the history of Rock and Roll.

TINA opened on Broadway on November 7, 2019, and was written by Katori Hall , with Frank Ketelaar and Kees Prins . It was nominated for 12 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The current touring production is directed by Phyllida Lloyd , and choreographed by Anthony van Laat , both Tony nominees. Under their watchful eyes, the show moves briskly along, and with the same energy and artistry that defined Tina Turner 's performances.

Condensing the life of an icon into two and a half hours is a challenge, and TINA does an admirable job of telling that story, with just a modicum of artistic license employed to keep the narrative moving. In addition to the standard "sex, drugs and rock and roll" themes that are de rigueur for a musical of this type, Turner's story includes domestic abuse, sexism, exploitation, racism, discrimination - and ultimately, redemption, reinvention, and triumph. It would be an uplifting show if it were a work of fiction; the fact that it's based on a real person makes it truly inspiring.

Any discussion of TINA has to begin with Naomi Rodgers , who stars in the title role. To say that Rodgers lights up the stage would do her a disservice - she lights the stage on fire and keeps that fire burning throughout the show. Rodgers portrays Turner from her late teens until she takes the stage in front of 180,000 fans in Rio de Janeiro, capping one of the greatest comebacks in musical history. It's an extraordinarily demanding role to play - Rodgers is on stage for almost the entire show - and she has both the vocal talent (and dancing chops and stage presence) to cover Turner's musical catalog, and the acting skill to handle the broad range of emotions that make up Turner's life off stage. (Presumably because of the physical demand this show puts on the lead, the program also lists Zurin Villanueva in the title role, in addition to two understudies. Audience members should be prepared to see either actor in a given performance.)

The large supporting cast has great depth of talent and is well balanced. Garrett Turner 's portrayal of Ike Turner is solid and nuanced, by turns self promoting showman and abusive, jealous and manipulative husband. Turner does a good job of modulating the intensity of the show's primary antagonist. Roz White (as Tina's mother, Zelma Bullock) and Anny Nesby (Tina's grandmother Georgeanna) give valuable insight into the complicated family relationships that defined her life. Nesby in particular provides a number of the show's most poignant moments, and she teams with Ayvah Johnson (Young Tina) late in the second act in one of the most moving scenes in the show. Parris Lewis (Tina's sister Alline), and Max Falls (Erwin Bach) help fill in the picture of her personal life, as well.

Musically, the show covers just about every era of Turner's career - often through standalone performance segments (concerts or recording sessions), although many of songs have been worked into the story line, with varying degrees of success. There are multiple instances throughout the show where the overall running time and pacing would have benefited from a verse or two (or an entire song) being cut. (Also, it is glaringly obvious that some of the actors - particularly several that are supposed to be playing guitars - could use a little rudimentary coaching on how to look like they are actually playing the instruments in their hands.) That said, the "real" offstage musicians (under the excellent direction of Music Director Anne Shuttlesworth ) are absolutely top notch, and they get a well deserved moment to shine on stage (as Turner's backing band) in the show's big finale.

From a creative and technical standpoint, TINA dazzles. Mark Thompson 's costume designs are period perfect, and brilliantly constructed to allow for the dozens of quick changes needed throughout the show. Thompson also designed the set, and it is a clever melding of video backdrops, platforms and functional, minimal furnishing that shifts scenes smoothly and efficiently. Lighting Designer Bruno Poet has done a masterful job of moving from the glare of the concert scenes to the soft, intimate lighting needed for the expository moments of the show. In the final scene it feels like you are actually at a concert. Likewise, Sound Designer Nevin Steinberg has handled the duality of creating both a believable concert atmosphere, while also conveying believable theatrical moments, with great skill and dexterity.

As noted above, the plot includes a lot of adult situations, violence and profanity, so I wouldn't recommend this show for young children. Even though the ending is triumphant, it's a very rough ride along the way.

Tina Turner has retired from performing, but TINA is the perfect chance to have an experience that is very close to seeing her live. It's a powerful and inspiring show, and not to be missed.

Boston Arts Academy honors Tina Turner with ‘Simply the Best!’ stage show

The Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll is getting her due at the Boston Arts Academy.

The BAA student show entitled “Simply the Best! The Life and Legacy of Tina Turner,” which takes audiences through Tina Turner ’s illustrious yet turbulent career, runs from Thursday through Saturday at the school’s main auditorium. Located in the Fenway neighborhood, BAA is Boston’s only public high school for visual and performing arts. With 40 students working on stage and behind the scenes, the production features performances of the singer’s best-known hits, accompanied by live music, backing singers, lights, and an elaborate stage setup.

“If you’re going to go to a Tina Turner concert, we want to re-create that for you,” said William McLaughlin, the show’s director and chair of the dance department at BAA. “We don’t want people to come and just sit and watch, we want it to be participatory.”

The Turner tribute comes less than a year after the singer’s death and ties into Women’s History Month in a meaningful way, Maura Tighe, artistic director at BAA said,

“When Tina passed, we thought this would be a great opportunity to really hold her up as a feminine icon of resilience and power,” she said.

Each of the show’s three sections focuses on a distinct part of Turner’s story: the Ike and Tina Turner period, her soundtrack and movie work, and her ‘90s “‘Simply the Best’ era,” as McLaughlin called it. Deurick Gomes and Mecca Williams, both seniors at BAA, said preparing for the show taught them a lot about Turner’s discography and her life story.

“I didn’t know too much about Tina, but I still knew of her and her music,” said Gomes. “When we started doing this show, I really started getting into her story more and started to understand what she was about — the image and power and responsibility she held in the music industry.”

Williams and Gomes said the show had made them deeper fans; both were struck by her legacy as a person and the perseverance she displayed throughout her life — from escaping an abusive marriage to redefining herself as an artist.

“I had a conversation the other day, someone asked me ‘Why Tina?’ and they said something like she’s crazy,” said Williams. “I was like well, the reason why she is the way she is is because of the industry — that’s how they made her.”

Portraying Turner on stage isn’t easy, not just because of the vocals, but her larger than life stage presence. Williams, who hopes to pursue a career as a vocalist, said getting out of her shell was the toughest challenge, but necessary if she wanted to become Tina.

“I was at home listening to ‘Proud Mary’ and trying to emulate her,” she said. “Just going home, practicing how I’m going to dance in heels, practicing how I’m going to sing in heels. Trying to build that character of Tina helped me a lot.”

“I connected with Tina and her story because she brought a new sound to the industry,” said Gomes, who sings backup vocals in the show. ”She was very bold with her sound, and she was very confident in herself and the music she was making.”

On Thursday, before the first performance, a now sold-out fundraiser will be held at House of Blues hosted by the Boston Arts Academy Foundation, where this year’s graduating class will be awarded $250,000 in scholarship funds.

“I believe that in the city of Boston, talent is evenly distributed, opportunity is not,” said Denella Clark, President and CEO of Boston Arts Academy Foundation. “I’m so grateful to all of the donors who’ve contributed to this event because they’re making opportunities possible for our kids.”

“Simply the Best! The Life and Legacy of Tina Turner” March 21-23. 174 Ipswich St., Boston. For tickets, visit bostonartsacademy.org

Outlaw country music star Chris Stapleton is on the road this summer with his All-American Road Show Tour.

His new album, called Higher , was released by Mercury Nashville in November 2023. Rolling Stone said of the album, “dazzling…the best evidence yet for the way one man’s voice has become synonymous with the very idea of a musical genre.”

Stapleton will be performing Aug. 21 at Legacy Arena in Birmingham. Find tickets at SeatGeek , Vivid Seats , Ticketmaster and StubHub . The show will also feature Grace Potter and Allen Stone.

He will also be at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Aug. 9 and 10 with Marty Stuart and Nikki Lane.

From Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club to the Ed Sullivan Theater, Justin Thomas had a whirlwind 24 hours after a final-round 71 at the Valspar Championship.

“(Jordan) would always come to the Kentucky Derby, and I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky,” Thomas said. “He loves golf. He loved it then, still loves it now. He wanted to play golf when he was in town and he had a friend who he played in the NBA with, Junior Bridgeman, who was friends with my dad and put the connection together and he would come out and play my dad’s course. And I would just be lucky enough to be out there when he was playing.”

For the first two years, Thomas caddied for the group. But in the third year, Jordan came to the course and invited Thomas to play.

“He always used to call me 'little man;' he’s like, ‘Little man go get your clubs, you’re going to play the last seven holes with us,’” Thomas recalled to Colbert. “He knew that I played golf, but he didn’t know that I was decent and nobody else had any idea. So he goes, ‘I’ll take little man for whoever wants us.’”

Thomas made four birdies in seven holes and won “three or four grand,” which “helped pay for my first car.”

Thomas concluded the interview by discussing the Ryder Cup. Thomas is 7-4-2 in his Ryder Cup career but struggled at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club. He went 1-2-1 for the week. The Europeans beat the U.S., 16.5-11.5. Thomas spoke glowingly of the experience despite the result.

“I just love it because it’s an opportunity – you’re playing for something bigger than yourself," Thomas said. "You’re playing for your country, your teammates, your captains. It’s a huge, huge sporting event, and I can’t suggest it enough to people to witness it, experience it if you haven’t before.”

It was Thomas’ second appearance on a late-night television show. Thomas appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" in 2022.
