Where would the world of music be with the Queen of Rock and Roll? Tina Turner changed music forever with her iconic sound that spanned multiple decades, with a career that stood the test of time. There’s no denying that Turner is simply the best, which is why creating a jukebox musical that features not only her music but also deep dives into her life is an absolute no-brainer. The Broadway show TINA- The Tina Turner Musical is currently touring North America and recently stopped in Detroit as a bonus show for Broadway in Detroit’s 2025-2026 season. With a story that’s rich in depth and characters that are as real as the people they’re based on, there’s so much to discuss about this icon’s life and legacy.
