The West End production of °Õ¾±²Ô²¹â€”T³ó±ð Tina Turner Musical, which opened in London in April 2018, will play its final performance at the Aldwych Theatre September 13.
The musical, based on the life of late, legendary artist Tina Turner, is the longest-running show to ever play the Aldwych and one of the top 10 longest-running productions in the West End (according to the production).
Stage Entertainment producer Tali Pelman said in a statement, “The decision to close our West End production has been extremely difficult. Celebrating and sharing Tina’s legacy has meant so much to all of us who have been working on this show over the last decade. We are proud to have fulfilled Tina’s dream for the musical, which was to serve not only as a reminder of her work but as the beating heart of her empowering message—courage, indomitable spirit, and an eternal optimism in what is possible.
"We are grateful to our exceptional authors and creatives, to the many extraordinary women who have played this phenomenal role on the Aldwych stage, to the casts, musicians, production and backstage teams and to the countless others who have dedicated themselves to the London production over the past ten years."
Karis Anderson and Zoe Birkett currently share the title role. Fleur East will succeed Birkett in June.
Based on the life of Grammy winner Turner and produced in association with the rock icon, °Õ¾±²Ô²¹â€”T³ó±ð Tina Turner Musical received its world premiere at the Aldwych in 2018. The Broadway production subsequently opened in 2019 and played its final performance at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre August 14, 2022. Adrienne Warren, who opened the London production, also opened the Broadway staging, subsequently winning a Tony for her performance. She is currently back on Broadway opposite Nick Jonas in Jason Robert Brown's The Last Five Years.
In addition to Broadway, Tina has also been seen across North America, in Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and Australia. The first U.K. and Ireland tour opened in March, the Brazilian production is opening in February 2026, and further European and worldwide productions are forthcoming.
