Tina Turner (played by Broadway star Adrienne Warren in her West End debut) didn’t just break the rules, she rewrote them. This new stage musical, written by Katori Hall with Frank Ketelaar and Kees Prins, and presented in association with Tina Turner herself, reveals the untold story of a woman who dared to defy the bounds of her age, gender and race.

The production has also announced that three short films, charting its development of the show, are to be released on the show’s social media channels. In the first instalment, Phyllida Lloyd, Director of the show, visits Tina Turner to talk about life, music and the stage. You can see this below:
