The producers of TINA – The Tina Turner Musical have announced that the acclaimed West End production will close at the Aldwych Theatre on Saturday 13 September 2025.

The musical, which opened in April 2018, has become the longest-running show in the history of the Aldwych Theatre and one of the top 10 longest-running musicals currently in the West End.

Stage Entertainment Producer Tali Pelman said:
“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.

We are delighted that the show is selling out on Tour across the UK and Ireland and continues to elate audiences in productions across North America, Europe and around the world. In London this will be a summer of celebration, led by our glorious duo of Karis Anderson and Fleur East in our final West End cast.”
