I first heard about the possibility of a stage musical portraying Tina’s life eight years ago and I immediately reached out to Tali Pelman at Stage Entertainment. At that point there was no script and no book however I was hooked on the idea of it. Australians are loving this theatrical masterpiece which tells the story of Tina’s life, of empowerment and success, and is ultimately the best music industry comeback story of all time.”

I know Australia was very close to Tina’s heart, so we are especially excited our show is touring. Our musical is about how Tina became not only the music icon we adored, but the woman who continues to motivate and inspire us today. Everything about Tina was unique – her heart, her story and of course her voice – and we can’t wait for all of Australia to experience her journey and her triumph through our show.

Queensland audiences have already responded enthusiastically to TINA – THE TINA TURNER MUSICAL with tickets selling fast since we first announced the season. Tina had a special affinity for Australia and of course our Brisbane Broncos, so what’s not to love? Tina was much loved throughout her career and her legacy lives on through her music, but a lot of people don’t know the story of her life beyond the stage. This musical is an unforgettable immortalisation of a formidable woman and artist.
