The challenging and inspiring life story of singer/actress Tina Turner is told through this musical comprised of her most popular songs.

Born as Anna Mae Bullock in 1939, Tina first gained prominence in the 1960’s as the wife and music partner of musician/songwriter Ike Turner (1931-2007). Their turbulent relationship was dominated by drugs, spousal abuse and several hit rock records. After her 1978 divorce, Tina built herself a successful career as a solo vocalist (such as 1984’s “Private Dancer”) and an actress (including the 1985 movie “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome”). Tina largely retired from live performance in 2009.

“Tina” traces the artist’s life from her struggling childhood in rural Tennessee through the Ike years and finally reaching a period personal and professional happiness.
