Tina - The Tina Turner Musical will embark on its first UK and Ireland tour at Leicester Curve a year from now, with a Christmas season at the Manchester Palace (November 25, 2025-January 3, 2026).
Other northern dates are Sunderland Empire (March 26-April 5, 2025); Liverpool Empire (August 12-23, 2025); Theatre Royal, Newcastle (March 3-14, 2026), and Leeds Grand (March 17-April 4, 2026).
The musical is the story of the 12-time Grammy award-winning Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Set to a soundtrack of her iconic hits, including The Best, What’s Love Got To Do With It?, Private Dancer and River Deep, Mountain High, it is the story of a woman who defied the bounds of age, gender and race.
The musical continues to run at the Aldwych Theatre in the West End, where it has played for over five years following its world premiere. The musical is also a global success, with eight productions worldwide including on Broadway and across North America, Germany, Spain, Netherlands and Australia.
Directed by Phyllida Lloyd - the former Manchester Royal Exchange co-director who went on to produce everything from Britten's opera Gloriana to the Abba musical Mamma Mia! - and written by Olivier award and Pulitzer prize-winner Katori Hall, with Frank Ketelaar and Kees Prins, the show is choreographed by Anthony van Laast.
Producer Tali Pelman said, “Tina Turner played to packed out arenas across the UK and Ireland throughout her extensive career. We’re thrilled to now be able to bring her extraordinary story to stages across the UK and Ireland for the first time, celebrating the life and times of a truly inspirational woman whose story continues to move and elate audiences around the world every night.”
