A TINA Turner tribute show is heading to the Princes Theatre in Clacton-on-Sea.
Totally Tina takes place at 7.30pm on Thursday, April 30, and stars Justine Riddoch and her cast as they pay homage to the legendary singer.
Now in its 17th year, the show promises a new custom-made performance alongside a selection of Tina Turner’s greatest hits and surprises for both old and new fans.
The production was first launched in Liverpool and has since received a Lifetime Achievement Award and recognition at national tribute awards shows over the years.
Justine Riddoch said: "I am thrilled by the success of this production – we have come so far!
"Having been told on many occasions that I sounded like Tina, I decided to take the plunge and then spent hours familiarising myself with her life story and scrutinising video footage to watch mannerisms and body movements."
The show features hits such as River Deep – Mountain High, Proud Mary and Nutbush City Limits, as well as stadium favourites including We Don’t Need Another Hero, Simply the Best, What’s Love Got to Do With It and I Don’t Wanna Lose You.
This year, the performance will include extra songs such as Jumping Jack Flash, Honky Tonky Woman, Get Back, It’s Only Rock and Roll and The Bitch is Back.
The show also features a live band, sequined costumes, feathered dancing girls, and interactive segments with the audience, including post-show meet and greets.
Aiming to be a faithful recreation of Tina Turner’s iconic live shows, Totally Tina is known for its detailed choreography, distinctive vocals and high-energy routines.
Justine said: “We always add our own personality to the show each year; the element of surprise keeps things fresh, but my ultimate aim is to remain faithful to a Tina Turner live concert paying tribute to her career, and bring the best version of this amazing woman; her voice, her passion and even her legs, to her many fans.
