Janet Charlton's HOLLYWOOD

WE CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF TINA TURNER

The fabulous Tina Turner (and her longtime companion Erwin Bach) has every reason to smile because the new musical based on her life opened in London to great reviews. Tina: The Tina Turner Musical is described as a jukebox musical (our favorite!) and it has the same female musical director as Mamma Mia. Tina’s shoes are really hard to fill, but singer/dancer/actress Adrienne Warren is described as SO delicious playing Tina, (second photo) that it’s expected to propel her into superstardom. The current #MeToo movement makes the tale of Ike Turner’s abuse and Tina’s eventual solo success even sweeter. We can hardly WAIT to see this!

  1. Where's the originality?

    Broadway like Hollywood has officially run out of ideas. All they do now is make musicals aka karaoke parodies of acts from the past. Boring. I love Tina but watching this would be tantamount to watching one of her old concerts. What’s the point?

    Janet, these were hits from the 1900’s. A very long time ago. Not sure the readers can relate.
