Written alongside Tina Turner herself, TINA tells the story of how a small-town girl called Anna Mae Bullock escaped her humble beginnings in Nutbush Tennessee to became a music superstar.

It certainly wasn't an easy journey, and the story charts all of her personal struggles and life with Ike... but also the wonderful, thunderous classics.

Tina didn't just break the rules -- she rewrote them. She defied the boundaries of age, gender and race to become one of the best-loved artists of all-time.

Soundtrack of classic Tina Turner songs

The musical manages to weave in 23 much-loved songs including Let's Stay Together, What's Love Got to Do With It, I Don't Wanna Fight and Golden Eye, plus legendary tracks like Proud Mary, River Deep Mountain High, Private Dancer and Simply The Best.

What the theatre critics say...

Daily Telegraph: ★★★★★ "This joyful, lungs-busting show is simply the best"; The Times: ★★★★ "A raw musical triumph... This show has heart, soul, and more than a bit of rock'n'roll"; The Guardian: ★★★★ "A heady celebration of triumph over adversity... left the audience breathless"; Daily Mail: ★★★★★ "A power packed musical"
