TINA stage show is simply the best

‘(Taranaki) We are ready and raring to go’

-

The iconic hits of Tina Turner will be front and centre when TINA Simply the Best comes to Taranaki next month.

This will be the stage show’s first tour back to New Zealand after their national tour was interrupte­d by the eruption of the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020.

The 2022 tour will visit 20 venues between Kerikeri and Christchur­ch over 32 days.

Lead vocalist Caroline Borole – a TV and theatre star in her home country of South Africa, featuring as a vocal coach on South African Idol and starring as Effie in the musical Dreamgirls – says she is beyond excited to be returning to New Zealand.

“We can’t wait to bring the Tina vibes back to New Zealand – there’ll be big Tina energy, lots of dancing, and all the big, beautiful, powerful

songs that Tina is known for. We are ready and raring to go.”

Borole’s powerful, raspy voice and thrilling stage presence are mesmerisin­g in this high-energy tribute. The full-scale production, produced by the team behind the hit show Queen: It’s a Kinda Magic, will have audiences singing and dancing to all the rock and soul hits that made Tina one of the 20th century’s biggest names in music, including The Best, What’s Love Got to Do With It, River Deep

Mountain High, Proud Mary, Nutbush City Limits, Private Dancer, We Don’t Need Another Hero and many more.
