Prediction. The theatre exterior artwork will be ridden with those glitter tags ala Memphis / Motown at Shaftesbury Theatre.

Okay so what about Rachel Tucker as Tina? Those who went to see her on tour will know she was a Tina impersonator as a teenager so her playing the part now would be brilliant and she'd sing the hell out of the songs. Only thing is, is it of high enough callibre for Rachel? I know it's in the West End but it's jukebox and I'm just wondering what the production values would be (basically I'm being a bit of a MT snob).

Prediction. The theatre exterior artwork will be ridden with those glitter tags ala Memphis / Motown at Shaftesbury Theatre. The exterior blazoned in shinny and gltzy writing 'TINA'. With Underneath the catchphrase 'Lets Spend The Night Together'. Wonder if it will be a bio musical like Jersey Boys or Beautiful or based on a original book like Mamma Mia or Bat Out of hell. However whatever it is, it is a big fat no thanks from me.

Tina most definitely isn't Irish.

I'm sorry I feel a complete tw*t now I wasn't even thinking. How humiliating. I'll use the fact that I was travelling through California for 6 hours yesterday as my excuse for forgetting Tina Turner is black!

No matter who gets cast as Tina, Ruth Brown will still be tweeting "Im the real Tina Turner".

At least the headline writers will have an easy job if this is any good. I wonder which review will be preceded by the words "Tina the Musical is Simply The Best".

Tina's farewell tour was one of the most fabulous concerts I've ever been to. The woman was INCREDIBLE!
This could be really great, if they get it right.
