Tina Turner’s story hits Folsom stage—with wigs, wheels, and some wattage
The Tina Turner Musical lands in Folsom, reconstructing the life of one of modern music's most defiant voices through theatrical rhythm and choreographic drive. The production is shaped by recognized director Phyllida Lloyd, with Tony nominee Mark Thompson on design and Alvin Hough orchestrating musical direction.
Turner’s trajectory from anonymity to iconography unfolds on stage, tracing decades of sonic influence delivered through her voice, aesthetic, and relentless performance style.
Tina Turner Gets the Bronze Treatment in Hometown She Once Sang About
A 10-foot bronze sculpture of Tina Turner now stands in Brownsville, Tennessee, its pose channeling her signature lion-like mane and index-finger-held microphone. Revealed on Sept. 27 during Tina Turner Heritage Days, the piece captures the performer's stage dynamism, framed by the location where she attended high school.
Crafted by sculptor Fred Ajanogha, the statue sits near the Turner museum housed in her old schoolhouse. Funded partially by a $150,000 Ford donation, it reflects the legacy of a woman who once sang about Nutbush, just down the road.
