One year on from the devastating news of the passing of musical icon Tina Turner, world-renowned tribute producers Showtime Australia are bringing their international concert production TINA The Ultimate Tribute to The Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll to Mackay on 4 August 2024.
“Tina Turner is universally loved – everyone young and old knows her music and there’s so many really energetic, upbeat rock and soul tracks that are the epitome of a good time, so we wanted to make the effort and give as many people as possible a chance to see this show, it’s really that great,” says Director and Producer Johnny Van Grinsven.
This will be the first time the production has been seen in Australia, following successful tours in Canada and New Zealand in 2023 and the US earlier this year, and with Europe scheduled later in 2024.
South African singer and TV star Caroline Borole helms the show in the role of ‘Tina’ and brings her international band, brass section, backing vocalists and dancers to complete what promises to be an electrifying concert experience.
The concert format features two hours of back-to-back Tina Turner hits from the 60, 70s, 80s and 90s, all performed live on stage, including (Simply) The Best, What’s Love Got To Do With It, River Deep Mountain High, We Don’t Need Another Hero, Nutbush City Limits, Proud Mary, Private Dancer and more.
