Passion, sex appeal, temperament and a charismatic voice - these are the attributes with which Tina Turner was associated throughout her life. With hits like "What's Love Got To Do With It", "Typical Male" and "Addicted To Love" she became the "Queen of Rock'n'Roll" and one of the most successful singers in the world.
In the big tribute show "The Soul of Tina Turner" in the Prinzregententheater, top-class musicians will pay their respects to the grande dame of the music business, who died in May 2023, with the best of her 50-year success story. Singer Tess D. Smith, who became famous as the front act for “The Commodores” on the “Nightshift Asia Tour” and has already shared the stage with stars such as Janet Jackson, brings the many hits and musical facets of this fascinating artist to life in an authentic live performance.
Program and cast
Prinzregententheater
The Prinzregententheater, or Prince Regent Theatre, is a theatre and opera house located at 12 Prinzregentenplatz in theBavarian city of Munich, Germany.
Initiated by Ernst von Possart, the theatre was built in the Prinzregentenstrasse as a festival hall for the operas of Richard Wagner near an area where a similar project of King Ludwig II had failed some decades before. Named after Luitpold, Prince Regent of Bavaria the building was designed by Max Littmann and opened 21 August 1901 with a production of "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" by Richard Wagner. Like the Bayreuth theatre, the auditorium was designed to Wagner’s specifications, however an amphitheater has replaced the loges.
After the destruction of the Nationaltheater during World War II, the Prinzregententheater housed the Bavarian State Operafrom 1944 to 1963 even though it also suffered damage during the war which was not repaired until 1958. Since its renovation in 1988, the Prinzregententheater, with 1122 seats, has served also for the Bavarian Staatsschauspiel and now houses the Bavarian Theatre Academy founded by August Everding. Another theatre in the building, the Akademietheateror Academy Theatre, seats 300.
