Tina Turner Is Bringing Her Life To Broadway With “TINA,” Also Releasing A New Memoir

Tina Turner is bring “TINA,” the musical based on her life and music, will make its Broadway debut in Fall 2019. “TINA” premiered in London April of 2018, and is still currently playing at the Aldwych Theatre in London’s West End. 

“Bringing this musical to life on stage and working with this team has meant so much to me,” Turner said in a statement. “I feel that it is in many ways a culmination of my career. London audiences have been and continue to be extraordinary. Now, the bright lights of Broadway are calling, and I’m very excited to share this beautiful show with New York audiences next year.”

“TINA,” co-produced by Turner herself, stars Tony-nominated actress Adrienne Warren. Casting, performance dates, and the venue for the Broadway show will be announced at a later date.

Turner will also be releasing an autobiography, “My Love Story: A Memoir,” later this year. This will be the second memoir for the artist, a follow-up to her 1986 book “I, Tina.”
